2014 has begun on a "sour" note with the loss of our classmate, Richard Bradley. Richard has been fighting brain cancer since last March. He passed on January 14, at Salt Lake city. I have searched Utah for a bio, but not found one. His son, Mark told Mike Howerter that the services were being planned at the Air Force Academy in Colorado, Springs. RIP...buddy, classmate, and team mate. We won't forget you!
Don Thummel 1944 -2013
Donald William Thummel, 69, was born January 21, 1944 in Belpre, KS to Arnold and Lorraine (Klein) Thummel. On May 12, 2013 in Yukon, OK we lost our beloved husband, father & "Boppie." He was the rock of the Thummel family and will be deeply missed. Don was raised in Augusta, Kansas where he met the love of his life Paula Elliott. They were married on August 28, 1965 and together they began their family, the accomplishment he was most proud of in his life. He deeply loved his family and supported them with encouragement through every aspect of their lives. Don's greatest passion was playing sports. A talented athlete in multiple sports took him from the Little League World Series where his team finished second, to high school where he earned letters as a star athlete earning him a college scholarship playing football at Ottawa University. Don's love for the competition and team spirit drove him to play semi-pro football and baseball even after he had begun his family. His love of playing the game was continued through his countless hours of coaching athletes over the last four decades. Don supported Yukon Athletics, where he served as President of the Homerun Club, a member of the Quarterback Club, the Yukon Jays Athletic Club, Surrey Hills Colts Athletics and many other booster clubs. Don always demonstrated his devotion to God and Christianity. While a member of Epiphany Catholic Church, Oklahoma City, he served as a leader in many capacities. He and the family later joined St. John Nepomuk Catholic Church, Yukon. In 1979 Don began his long-esteemed career in oil field. Beyond the workplace Don served in the local International Association of Drilling Contractor's Chapter. Don was always known as a leader willing to share his knowledge & experience. In the multiple decades he worked in the oilfield, many young people looked up to and admired Don for his "on-the-job" experiences and oilfield character. To say he was a "mentor" is an understatement. Donald is survived by his wife, Paula Thummel; daughters, Lisa (Thummel) Corn and husband John, Shelli (Thummel) Hiatt and husband Steve; son, David Thummel and wife Julee; grandchildren, Jordan Corn, Jahree Hardcastle, Zoee Lawrence and Heidi Thummel; and siblings, Constance Thummel, Alan Thummel and wife Karen, Debbie Barter and husband Joe, and Craig Thummel. He is also survived by numerous other relatives and many friends. He is preceded in death by his parents. A Rosary and Wake service will be held at 7:00 p.m., Wednesday, May 15, 2013 in the Yanda & Son Funeral Home Chapel. Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 10:00 a.m., Thursday, May 16, 2013 at St. John Nepomuk Catholic Church with interment following at Yukon Cemetery.
