Lawrence Matthew Mickelson

Lawrence “Larry” Mickelson leaves behind a profound void in the hearts of all who knew and loved him. Larry was truly one of a kind—a man deeply loved by everyone fortunate enough to know him. Strong in character, with a heart of gold and a life guided by integrity, he touched countless lives through his generosity, kindness, and unwavering loyalty.

A dedicated Marine, Larry proudly served his country as a Crew Chief on the CH-53 Sea Stallion helicopters, attaining the rank of Staff Sergeant in the United States Marine Corps. He loved his country deeply and served with honor, courage, and pride, fighting for the freedoms we all share. The values of service, discipline, and brotherhood remained at the core of who he was throughout his life. Growing up as a surfer, Larry was often affectionately known as the “original Spicoli,” carrying his lifelong love of the ocean with him wherever life took him.

Following his military service, Larry continued that enduring bond of brotherhood as a patched member of the Marine Corps Riders (BMCR), beginning in 1996. A proud and active member for 31 years, he also served as President of the North Carolina Chapter for three years. The camaraderie, loyalty, and lifelong friendships he shared with his brothers were among the most meaningful aspects of his life.

Larry earned a Bachelor’s degree in Diplomacy and Military Studies, followed by a Master’s degree in Public Administration with a minor in Criminal Justice and Corrections.

Later in life, Larry met Katherine, and together they shared a deep, meaningful, and devoted partnership built on love, respect, laughter, and companionship, looking forward to the rest of their lives together. He also leaves behind his beloved dogs, who brought him constant joy and companionship.

Larry was preceded in death by his mother, Christine Cavin.

He is survived by his wife, Katherine; his loving father, Larry Mickelson Sr., stepmother, Shelly; his sister, Holly; his brothers, Ryan and his wife Tiffany, and Cody, to whom he was a loving brother and steadfast protector; his cherished nieces and nephews, Emily Iris, Abigail Rose, and James. Larry also leaves behind many extended family members, brothers from the Marine Corps Riders, and close friends who will forever cherish his memory in their hearts.

A private family viewing will be held in Fort Worth, followed by an honorable ceremony at Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery in San Diego, California.

Larry will be deeply missed, but his spirit, strength, loyalty, and love will live on in all those who knew and loved him.

Cary Louis Wood

Cary Louis Wood was born December 3, 1962 to the late Lois (Rife) and the late Deb Wood in Fort Worth, Texas. It is with profound sadness that his family said a final goodbye to Cary on April 22, 2026. We will all miss his sweet face and those big baby blue eyes.

Cary was a truly talented artist. It was such a pleasure to receive a letter from him back in the letter-writing days. He would create a masterpiece on the outside of the envelope that was unbelievably beautiful and delightful. His artwork was simply incredible.

Cary was also a gifted song writer, singer and guitarist. Cary loved his many pets including dogs, cats and a variety of birds. Cary also enjoyed gardening, growing lovely flowers and vegetables. He was a kind man of many talents.

Cary is survived by his loving wife, Kim, of 30 years. Siblings: Terry Adair, Tony Wood, Debbie Regan, Shelli Ryberg, Danny Wood (deceased) Cody Wood (deceased); Sidney Davidson (deceased) and Brent Davidson and numerous nieces and nephews.

Cary will be greatly missed by his family and friends. He will live in our hearts forever.

John Fredrick Cornwell

John “Jack” Fredrick Cornwell Sr., of Fort Worth, passed away peacefully on April 19, 2026, at the age of 83.

He was born on September 21, 1942, in North Buena Vista, Iowa, to Everett and Ida Mae Cornwell. After graduating from St. Mary’s Catholic School, Jack enlisted in the United States Air Force. He spent four years stationed at Webb Air Force Base, where he met and fell in love with the love of his life, Bennie Kay Stice. They were married on June 20, 1964, and shared 61 wonderful years together. Following his military service, Jack became an electrician and continued in that trade until his retirement.

Jack found joy in life’s simple pleasures—fishing, reading cowboy novels, and taking drives. He was known for his dry sense of humor, as well as his compassion, empathy for others, and generous spirit.

Jack was preceded in death by daughter Christy Kim Cornwell Bernard.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Bennie Kay Cornwell; his daughter, Julie Ione Cornwell; his sons, John Fredrick Cornwell Jr. and Kenneth (Kenny) Michael Cornwell (Courtney); and his granddaughter. He also leaves behind many cherished grandchildren—Jessica, Jennifer, Teddie Kay, Brooke, Brandon, Cody, Jack, Jake, Christian, Cohen, Dylan, and Braden—and great-grandchildren Wyatt, Emma, Macy, Addie, Maddie, Brenly, Tallulah, Alaina, Damien, Layna, Journey, Stevie, and Phoenix, along with many nieces and nephews.

Jack will be remembered for his kindness, quiet strength, and the love he gave so freely to those around him.
