Joe H. Reeves, 73, of Spring, Texas, passed away peacefully on August 21, 2026, surrounded by those he loved. Joe was born on October 15, 1952, in Borger, Texas, to Marvin Clayton Reeves and Flossie ‘Elizabeth’ Reeves. He later grew up in Pasadena, Texas, alongside his older brother, Jack, and younger brother, James. After graduating from Pasadena High School, Joe proudly served his country in the United States Coast Guard.

Following his military service, Joe attended The University of Texas at Austin, where he earned a degree in electrical engineering. A lifelong learner with an ever-present  curiosity, or perhaps simply a glutton for punishment, Joe eventually decided that one degree was not enough. He went on to earn an MBA from The University of Texas at Tyler, and later earned his law degree from South Texas College of Law. His education reflected something that remained true throughout his life: Joe loved to learn, loved to understand how things worked, and usually had an opinion about how they could work a little better. He worked in numerous industries throughout the Houston area where he met the love of his life, Ester, whom he married in 1989.

Those who knew Joe best will remember his intelligence, quick wit, and exceptionally dry sense of humor. You could always tell when he had just delivered a terrible joke by the groans coming from everyone around him. Beneath that dry humor, however, was an extraordinarily generous heart. Joe was always willing to lend a helping hand to someone in need. He freely gave his time, knowledge, and talents, and he was the kind of person others could count on whenever something needed to be done.

Joe’s faith was an important part of his life. He was an active member of Champion Forest Baptist Church, where he found fellowship, purpose, and opportunities to serve others. His faith was demonstrated not simply through words, but through his generosity and the way he cared for those around him. Of all the titles Joe held throughout his life, Coast Guardsman, engineer, attorney, student, and proud Longhorn, none meant more to him than  husband and father. He shared nearly 37 years of marriage with his beloved wife, Ester, and his love for Ester and Hilary was at the center of his life.

Joe is survived by his loving wife, Ester Rivas Reeves; his daughter and son-in-law, Hilary Reeves-Lopez and Paulo Lopez; his brothers, Jack Reeves and James Reeves, and James’s wife, Betty; his sisters-in-law and brothers-in-law, John and Anita Abernethy, Dan and Kay Rivas, and Joe Rivas; and his beloved nieces and nephews, Chris VanTuyl, Nicole Rivas, Allison Rivas, Kevin Abernethy, and Steven Abernethy.

Joe leaves behind a legacy of faith, service, curiosity, generosity, laughter, and love. His family will deeply miss his wisdom, his helping hands, his perfectly timed dry remarks, and his unmistakable presence.

Bing Scott Oslund, a beloved son, brother, friend, and proud United States veteran, passed away peacefully on August 29, 2026, at the age of 58, surrounded by the love of his family.

Bing was born on March 29, 1968, in Fremont, Michigan, to Bonnie June Burden and Gust “Bing” Wayne Oslund. He spent part of his youth in Grand Haven, Michigan, and later graduated from high school in Mandeville, Louisiana. He continued his education at San Jacinto College in Pasadena, Texas, where he earned his Bachelor of Science degree in Engineering. He later moved to Dallas, Texas, where he worked as a Process Control System Engineer at Honeywell.

Bing proudly served his country in both the United States Marine Corps and the United States Army. During his Army service, he served as a communications specialist and Battery Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical Noncommissioned Officer with A Battery, 4th Battalion, 29th Field Artillery. In December 1989, he was honored as Soldier of the Month. Corporal Bing S. Oslund later received the Army Achievement Medal in recognition of his exceptionally meritorious service performed from June 1, 1988, through May 15, 1990. His military service took him to Germany, and his commitment to serving his country continued into the Gulf War, where he proudly served in Operation Desert Storm.

Bing was an avid fisherman with a true adventurous spirit. His love of fishing and the outdoors took him to Alaska on several occasions, where he worked aboard a fishing boat during salmon season. These adventures allowed him to experience the beauty of Alaska while pursuing something he truly enjoyed. Bing loved music, attending concerts, traveling throughout Europe, and spending time with his family. He enjoyed dining out and firmly believed that a truly memorable meal

was always worth the splurge. Above all, Bing was unquestionably one of the most devoted and die-hard Dallas Cowboys fans.

Although naturally private and reserved, Bing possessed a wonderful sense of humor and loved telling jokes and making others laugh. He was intelligent, accomplished, and deeply respected by those who knew him. Beneath his quiet nature was a man who was deeply devoted to his family.

Bing’s faith was an important part of his life. He had a personal relationship with Jesus Christ and remained firm in his beliefs. His family finds comfort in knowing that he is now at peace and reunited with those he loved who went before him.

Bing was preceded in death by his father, Gust “Bing” Wayne Oslund, and his beloved daughter, Kielyn Nicole Dubbel.

He is survived by his mother, Bonnie June Burden; his sisters, Marti Suzanne Oslund and Mer’cedes “Mercy” Suzanne Dickey; his nephews, John Frederick Dickey II and James Henry Dickey; and other relatives and friends who will carry his memory with them.

Funeral arrangements are entrusted to Veterans Funeral Services, 10567 Veterans Memorial Dr., Houston, TX 77038. A chapel service will begin at 9:30 a.m. on Friday, September 11, 2026, followed by Military Honors at Houston National Cemetery at 10:45 a.m.

Bing will be remembered for his service to his country, his intelligence and quiet strength, his humor, his faith, and the fierce love he held for his family. His life and legacy will never be forgotten.

With one final salute, we lay an honorable soul to rest. Your service is complete, your watch is over, and your memory will remain forever in the hearts of all who knew and loved you. Farewell, Soldier. Farewell. May you rest in eternal peace.
