John L. Colville, Jr., 79, passed away on Sunday, December 6th, 2015 in Livingston, Texas. He was born in Port Arthur, Texas, December 26, 1935 to John L. and Esther Watson Colville. He attended Nederland High School and Lamar University. He was a U.S. Army Veteran and A Member of the Scottish Rite and lifetime member of the Masonic Lodge and American Legion. He was a Christian, loved the word of God and went home to be with his Lord and Savior. He was a member of the United Methodist Church of Onalaska. He retired after 28 years with Texas Instruments and worked at both the Stafford and Dallas sites. He was an outdoorsman loving fishing, hunting, shrimping, outdoors, piddling in his workshop and car racing. He had a great sense of humor and was quick witted. He volunteered around the community and would do anything for anyone but wanted no recognition so he was just the old man in the little red jeep. A special thank you to Greg Gray, his P.A. from the V.A. And we would also like to thank the wonderful staff from Gentiva.
