Clyde Hilton Stephens
March 23, 1929 — October 5, 2019
Clyde Hilton Stephens, 90, of Burleson, TX, received his final promotion, to the Kingdom of Heaven, on Saturday, October 5, 2019. Family members were blessed to be at his side.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Wounded Warrior Project.
Clyde was born in Cadiz, Kentucky. He was born March 23, 1929 to his loving mother, Johnnie Adams. He was her pride and joy. Clyde proudly served 21 years before retiring from the US Army. He received 2 Purple Hearts during the Korean War. He was an avid sportsman that enjoyed fishing and hunting with his son, Steve; gardening, "supervising", watching movies with his son-in-law, Merlin; napping and most of all, he loved being with his family. If you knew him, you knew that he did NOT like green peas or having his feet tickled! Clyde was blessed with 2 sons and 3 daughters. In 1977, he married his Sweetheart, Jennie Lee, and was blessed with 4 bonus daughters.
Special thanks, from our family, to Covenant Place of Burleson and Encompass Hospice for caring for and loving our Dad and Grandpa.
Clyde was preceded in death by his wife, Jennie Lee; mother, Johnnie Adams; and son, John Michael Stephens.
Clyde is survived by his children; Debbie Underwood and husband Mike of Fort Smith, AR; Steve Stephens of Kennesaw, GA; Kathy Burnett of Haltom City, TX; Mary Ruth Mieth of Fort Worth, TX; Stella Slay of Burleson, TX; Margaret Hampton and husband Merlin of Burleson, TX; Dottie Draper of Benbrook, TX; and Jennie Jacobs of Crowley, TX; 20 grandchildren; 22 great-grandchildren; and 3 great-great grandchildren and 1 on the way.
