Notes:

Winfred "Wimpy" Luce
Born February 7, 1937 and passed in March, 2006
W.T. "Wimpy" Luce, a community leader in Montgomery County since the 1960's, passed away Friday night at Memorial Hermann The Woodlands Hospital. He was 69 years old. Born the last of four boys to Winnie McLemore Luce and Ernest Luce on February 7, 1937, in Latexo, Texas, Wimpy grew up in Houston, and graduated from Jefferson Davis High School. A banker all of his life, Wimpy's career spanned from a 17-year-old bank courier, to Vice President of First National Bank in Conroe, to President of the First State Bank of Magnolia, which he literally built from the foundation up. Wimpy later worked with Merrill Lynch and Prudential Securities, now Wachovia, from where he retired in 2005. He helped organize and served as the first President of the Chamber of Commerce in Magnolia, and he was instrumental in organizing the first March of Dimes effort in Montgomery County. Wimpy was the long time Song Leader of the Conroe Noon Lions Club, and member of the Conroe Country Club. Wimpy played a large part in financing and developing the Texas Renaissance Festival, where he also portrayed the role of Bishop. He was a gifted public speaker, and possessed a beautiful baritone voice which he used to direct church choirs and perform with country and western bands. Wimpy is survived by his wife, Mollye Luce, with whom he recently celebrated 25 years of marriage with a reception of family and friends, and renewal of their vows. He also leaves two daughters, Nelda Luce Blair and husband Jim of The Woodlands, and Kim Dollar and husband Danny of Bulverde, and their mother Sue Luce of Conroe. He also leaves three step-daughters Carreen Carson and husband Clay of Dallas, Charlotte Kuenstler and husband Richard of Bellville, and Laura Blum and husband Keith of Katy. Eleven grandchildren who will greatly miss their "Paw Paw" are Evan "Scooter" Wilkerson, Isaac Wilkerson, Danielle Dollar and Ross Dollar of Bulverde, Maris Harkins of Conroe, Jake Carson and Catherine Carson of Dallas, Rachel Kuenstler and Reilly Kuenstler of Bellville, and Conner and Kennadi Blum of Katy. He is also survived by three older brothers, Lester Luce of San Antonio, Forrest Luce and wife Mary Ann of Houston, and Donal Luce and wife Florice of Conroe, and a host of nieces, nephews, extended family and beloved friends. Visitation with the family and viewing will occur on Monday, February 20, from 5 to 8 pm at Metcalf Funeral Home. Reverend Dearing Jones will officiate at funeral services on Tuesday, February 21, at 11 am, at the First Baptist Church of Magnolia, with a graveside service following at Magnolia Cemetery. The family requests that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to Hope International, 311 N. Market Street, Suite 300, Dallas, Texas 75202, or the Conroe ISD Education Foundation, Wimpy Luce Memorial Scholarship, c/o P.O. Box 1494, Conroe, Texas 77305, or the charity of your choice. Wimpy's unique character and gregarious personality will be fondly remembered by all.
