Preceded in death by his loving wife of 42 years, Carol Ann Siegel, and his parents Ben and Sophia Siegel.
Mr. Siegel was quite accomplished in everything he set his mind to. He served honorably in the United States Navy during the Korean conflict aboard the U.S. Navy destroyer USS Rowe (DD-564).
He was a Mechanical Engineer, working for Texas Instruments, Recognition Equipment and Xerox. At one point, Mr. Siegel decided to get a Real Estate Broker's License. Although this was short-lived, he went back to college and took up Calligraphy. And letters and numbers, would become a passion for him. In 1979, he formed his company-Quill Productions, and the rest as they say, was history. Mr. Siegel's "second home" was the Society of American Magicians Assembly No. 13 in Dallas, Texas; where he served as Secretary-Treasurer, Editor of the Assembly News, Vice President, President and Assembly Historian. Mr. Siegel had the distinct honor of being a 50+ year member and Lifetime Member of this wonderful magic group. He has also served on the Board of Governors of the Texas Association of Magicians.

A teacher, scholar and a good friend to many, he will be missed.
Mr. Siegel's daughter and son-in-law would like to say a special 'Thank You' to the staff at Silverado Memory Care-Valley Ranch, Irving, Texas; for the wonderful and loving care that they took of Mr. Siegel during his time there.
