Obituary: The life of Betty Jo (Hale) Lawyer is a monument to loyalty, love and dedication. Her family was her life. That includes following her husband to various parts of the globe in the service of Chevron Oil Corporation. She met the then-future husband, Lee Lawyer, in her first year at Oklahoma University. were made for each other and three years later were married on 9, 1951. Unfortunately, Lee was inducted into the U.S. Army that same ! He was assigned to Ft. Belvoir, VA, which is near Washington, DC. She was a civilian employee of the US Air Force in Oklahoma City at the time. Undaunted, she applied for a transfer to the Pentagon, in Arlington, VA to be near her husband. She bravely travelled by train with her steamer trunk from Oklahoma City to Washington D.C. were there for a brief year, when he was sent overseas. Back home she went, to await the eventual discharge of Lee from the service. A few months after the return home, she gave birth to her first Son, Mark. three years as an Army wife, her family settled down and Lee started a career with Chevron. Three more years were to go by, which were characterized by frequent moves. Dutifully and without complaint, she packed and unpacked more than twenty times in that three year period. Near the end of their nomadic journey, she gave birth to her second son, Mitchell. Many of the contemporary wives opted to go home to Mother to give birth to their children. Not Betty! being separated from her husband during his Army years, she vowed ever again. The next 35 years with Chevron required a complete household move about every five years. Knowing that it was best for Lees career, she gave up the security of a permanent home to follow her husband where ever he led. But their life was full of the joy of her two children. She controlled the purse strings while Lee worked at getting ahead. Her sons, knowing the strict financial restrictions on the family, lovingly referred to her as, Aunt Mammy Bammy Big Money. She would parse out the dollars only when the need was great, smiling and happy to be an integral part of the family. Of course, she met many lifelong friends with Chevron, many of who had also gone through the difficult first three years on geophysical crews. The next milestone in her life was when Lee retired after almost 40 years with Chevron. The once proud and confident woman would become confused and timid when faced with simple decisions and choices. She began to experience the terrible early symptoms of Alzheimers. She and her husband made a pact never to part as long as one of them was alive and capable of taking care of the other. The pact was never broken. She was on another journey through unknown territory similar to those first three years with Chevron. There were ups and downs but slowly and inexorably the downs deepened. Through it all she was cared for at home. One day, there were no ups, just downs. She was near the end of her lifes journey and one morning in May she didn awaken. Time had taken her. Her journey was over. She had been a constant abiding spirit, faithfully following where duty led, never flinching, unwavering; A truly magnificent life and a monument to loyalty, love and dedication. |

Obituary: Lurlene Ovena Wood was born on 3, 1921, in Moran, Texas. She was the fourth of 10 children born to Roy and Gracie Wood: five boys and five girls. As a young girl, while her two older sisters helped Mama in the kitchen, Lurlene’s job was to watch over the newest baby in the family as it napped or played. Within a few years, she was watching over four younger brothers. She often jokes that she was envious when her sisters got to shell peas, shuck corn, or wash dishes as she loved doing housework. Years later, one of the brothers told the story of Lurlene coming down to the swimming hole to fetch the boys for lunch, but they wouldn’t get out. When she threatened to get a “switch” and make them get out, he said they just laughed because they all knew she was too sweet and too tender hearted to ever swat any of them. Lurlene graduated from Hamilton High School where she played on the basketball team and went on to attend Howard Payne in Brownwood, Texas. In 1944, she became the only person in her family to receive a college degree, a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration. While living in Ft. Worth, Lurlene’s roommate introduced her to Roy Lawver, a young man just out of the Air Force. learning they had both taken dance lessons through Arthur Murray Dance Studios, the roommate encouraged them to dance to the radio on the front porch of the boarding house. On their first date, Roy took her to a dance at the YWCA. On their second date, he told her he was going to marry her someday and he did on 3, 1952. were blessed with three children: Brenda, Cynthia, and David. Lurlene was a sweet and loving person throughout her life. It seemed that everyone who ever met her described her as being ‘such a sweet person.’ She had a very special, loving countenance. The desire to be helpful was at the core of Lurlene’s personality. She spent her life caring for others and putting them first. Showing love and being attentive in even the smallest of ways was an automatic response for her. Even in her nineties, she was still reaching to open the door and hold it for whomever she was walking with and would always hop up to help a visitor put on their coat and gather their belongings. It simply did not occur to her that others should be doing things for HER. She was a dedicated mother and homemaker. In retirement, she and Roy enjoyed spending their summers in Michigan. 56 years of marriage, Roy passed away in 2008. For the next five years, Lurlene divided her time living with her daughters in both Carrollton, TX and Battle Creek, MI. Lurlene was loved and adored by her 3 children, their spouses, 6 grandsons and their wives, 4 great-grandchildren, 4 great-great-grandchildren, 2 sisters, 2 sisters-in-law, 29 nieces and nephews, and 69 great-nieces and nephews. She will be greatly missed, but the love she shared will live on forever. A celebration of life will be held , 14, from 12-2PM at Rolling Oaks . |
