Sam Roy Powell was born on August 28, 1934, and he died on March 13, 2023. Mr. Powell was a kind and generous man, a devoted husband, and a loving father and grandfather. He was preceded in death by his parents, Rufus and Merle Powell, his brother, Dick Powell, and his beloved wife, Patsy Louise Powell. He is survived by his daughters: Melissa Broeren (Jon Broeren), Suzanne Powell, and Laura Nieto (Jimmy Nieto); his grandchildren: Clayton (Ariel), Brice, Sarah, Sabrina, Krysta, Jacob and Sophia; and his great grandchildren: Kylie, Aubrey, Blakely and Brody.
We would like to thank the staff at Trinity Hospice (especially Terry) and the staff at Auberge Cedar Park (especially Caroline) for the exceptional care they provided for Daddy, and for the genuine kindness, comfort and support they extended to our family.
We miss both of our parents and our grief is overwhelming. But Daddy was just never okay after we lost Mama in June of 2021. There is peace in knowing that they are together again, exactly as they should be, exactly as they would want to be.
