Mr. Homer Wilbur Feuchter

Homer was born May 19, 1926 in New Florence Missouri to Charles and Mary Loues Marechal Feuchter, and spent most of his life in the Memphis, Tennessee area, where he met the love of his life, Willa “Jane” Simmons and they were married on July 17, 1949. They enjoyed 72 wonderful years together until Jane’s death in December 2021.

Homer worked as an aircraft mechanic for C & S Airlines and moved to Atlanta Georgia, where the couple welcomed their first son Mark in 1955. After moving to Grapevine, Texas, the family grew with the addition of a second son, Max in 1959.

Homer became an airline pilot with Trans Texas Airways, and spent many years flying all over the world for Trans Texas, Texas International, and Continental Airlines, and he was a proud member of the Grapevine Masonic Lodge for over 60 years, as well as the International Order of Odd Fellows Lodge in Grapevine, and has gained many beloved friends through both the airlines and his lodge affiliations.

There was never a greater Dragon fan than Homer Feuchter, and he spent many years attending Carroll ISD sporting events through his sons and grandsons - baseball, football, basketball, and band, just to name a few, as well as having a large part in building and creating sports fields, running tracks and other facilities for the Dragons.

Jane and Homer were blessed with 4 grandsons, one granddaughter, one great-grandson, many lifelong friends and extended family members who will miss Homer more than words can express.

Homer was predeceased by his brothers Charles, and Carl, and sisters Lucille and Viola, his beautiful wife Jane, and oldest grandson Cory.

Survivors include sons Mark, Max and wife Donna, grandsons Cole, Cameron and Luke Feuchter, granddaughter Haley Thompson and husband Zak, and great grandson Wyatt Thompson.
