William Kenneth Herbert
“To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die”.
- Ecclesiastes 3: 1,2
ODESSA - William Kenneth Herbert passed from this life after a brave battle with cancer.
He entered earthly life March 20, 1936, and passed to eternal life on January 25, 2006. The son of William E. and Madilene Smith; Ken was adopted by Robert M. Herbert in 1949.
Kenneth married Katherine Sue Jeffries on September 1, 1956 and was married to her for 44 years until she preceded him in death in 2000. Also preceding Kenneth in death were his own father William Smith in 1948, his mother Madilene Herbert in 2003, and his dad Robert Herbert in 2005.
Many loved ones survive him: wife Carolyn Herbert of Midland; son Kelly Herbert and wife Janie of Katy; daughter Holly Wesson and husband Jeff of Midland; step daughter Suella McCarty of Lubbock. So loved by him were his grandchildren Levi and Sarah Jane Herbert, Micah, Jacey, Craig and Cody Wesson, and Victoria McCarty. Kenneth is also survived by a special cousin Patricia Sibley and cousins Stanley Reynolds, Morris Young and wife Reba.
Kenneth Herbert was an extraordinary person with a long list of accomplishments. He graduated from Odessa High School in 1954 and received a BBA from Texas Tech in 1961. He founded Marklyn Controls and Supply in the garage of his home in 1967 and grew the business to seven locations, servicing multi states and various industries until his retirement in 1995.
He was a life long member of Eisenhower church of Christ where he generously served as Deacon and later as Elder. Kenneth took great joy teaching Bible classes for the teenagers and young adults. He also served as an interpreter of the Bible to the deaf. He will also be remembered for his devoted service to the bus ministry.
Ken eventually braved the frailty of his health by overachieving in other aspects of his life. He took up motorcycling in later years, traveling the southwest, and eventually joined the Miata Club. Well renowned for his love of Sue’s biscuits, Isabel’s tamales, and breakfast at supper time. He had incredible drive and ambition and was generous to all including family, friends, and even strangers. He instilled in his children “if it is worth doing, it is worth doing well.” Although Kenneth was driven to success, his first desire was to spend eternity with his Savior.
The funeral will be conducted at 2 p.m. Friday, January 27, 2006, at the Eisenhower church of Christ, officiated by Burt Groves. Interment will follow at Resthaven Memorial Gardens in Midland.
The family suggests memorials be made to the Eisenhower Youth fund, Odessa Christian School, or Home Hospice.
In his Savior’s home Kenneth now resides…a place far, far better than we can imagine. The family chain is broken, but faithfully holds that as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.
“For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
- Romans 8:38

Willa Suzanne Adams Garman
Midland - After a long struggle with cancer, Willa Suzanne Adams Garman passed away on Friday, January 20 at the age of 58 at Medical Center Hospital in Odessa, Texas. Suzanne’s survivors include her husband, Wayne Garman of Odessa Texas; two children, Cara S Hill of Conway, AR and Philip H Garman of McKinney, TX; one sister, Faye Sharp of Columbia, MO and a multitude of friends and relatives far too numerous to list here.
Suzanne was born in Camden, Arkansas on June 16, 1947 to Hartley and Marjorie Adams, and it was in Camden that she received her elementary and secondary education.
While attending the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville in the late 1960s, Suzanne met her future husband, Wayne Garman of Gravette, Arkansas, and they were married in Camden, Arkansas on December 27, 1969.
In January 1970, Suzanne was awarded a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education with a minor in business administration. In 1973, after further study at Tulsa Community College in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Suzanne earned an Associate Degree in Applied Science, and she was licensed to practice as a Physical Therapy Assistant in the state of Oklahoma.
From 1970 to 1992, the couple resided in Tulsa, where her husband was employed as a math teacher in the Tulsa Public School System. During her 22 years in Tulsa, Suzanne worked in the mortgage industry as a loan closer, in physical therapy and served as a district director in the Oklahoma Green Country Council of Campfire, Inc.
After the family moved to Odessa, Texas in 1992, Suzanne developed a strong interest in quilting, and in 1998 she became owner and manager of Needle Nook Quilt Store in Midland, Texas. Of the several vocations she has followed, Suzanne most enjoyed her work at the Needle Nook.
Suzanne has been a member of First United Methodist Church in Camden, Arkansas and East Tulsa Christian Church in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Through her long illness, Suzanne remained strong, courageous and productive, with a faith that never wavered- a faith that is summed up in a single verse of scripture- John 11:26. “… whoever lives and believes in me will never die.” (NIV)
We, Suzanne’s family, want to thank friends and relatives, near and far, for concern and prayers during Suzanne’s long illness. Especially, we want to thank the selfless Needle Nook staff and West Texas quilters who so enriched the last years of her life.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Susan G Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, P.O. Box 650309, Dallas, TX 75265.
