Sally Pearl McCaleb

Sally might tell you that her life began when she met Alvin McCaleb in high school, but in reality, Sally came into this world on October 5, 1929. Sally is the youngest of ten children (5 sisters, 4 brothers) born to Pearl Hight and Tony David Hight. Sally’s dad died when she was only 3 months old, but her siblings made sure she was cared for. Sally always said that she never had a day when she didn’t feel loved.

Sally met Alvin McCaleb at Clayton High School where they both graduated and where Sally was the valedictorian of their class. Alvin and Sally married on July 27, 1947, at First Baptist Church in Clayton, but they began married life in Cactus, a small oil field town in the Texas panhandle. They soon joined the Baptist church there and Alvin began to climb the ladder of employment at Phillips Gas Plant. While there, Sally and Alvin started their family: Kathy (1948) and Nathan (1951). After moving to several places in Texas, Sally and Alvin settled in the middle of nowhere – in the middle of the Shamrock Oil and Gas company’s oil field. Their nearest neighbors were two miles away and much of the road was unpaved. Sally became a Brownie Troop leader at the closest elementary school (10 miles away) and served a term as PTA president. It was here that Alvin taught Sally to drive a car and to ride a bicycle. After four years, Sally and Alvin purchased the company house they had lived in and actually had the house moved to Dumas, Texas. Complicating that move, baby Janet joined the family just before the house was literally picked up and moved into town.

Sally’s years in Dumas were full of family, friends, and fun. Sally was a stay-at-home mom until Janet started junior high. During those years she enjoyed times with her Jabberwocky Club of friends, hosting Women’s Missionary Union meetings, and going on bike rides with Alvin. Together they took many Saturday bike rides of 50 or more miles and completed mountain rides plus at least one ride of 100 miles!

As Alvin moved up Shamrock’s corporate ladder, he was promoted to the executive office in Amarillo. Sally decided to take advantage of the junior college there and earned an Associate’s Degree. While in school, she also enjoyed learning photography and played the violin in the orchestra.

Sally and Alvin always enjoyed travel, both domestic and foreign, from camping to elegant hotels. They traveled the U.S. and Sally traveled to every state in the U.S. One of their last trips was to Europe where they saw as many countries as possible in two weeks time.

Alvin died from cancer, just after he and Sally celebrated 49 years of marriage to each other. After several months of living alone, Sally married Jack Parker and they moved to San Angelo. They enjoyed traveling to Alaska, touring the Rocky mountains, and seeing the east coast before Jack died.

During Sally’s last years in San Angelo, she made many wonderful friends and was an involved member of Southland Baptist Church. She enjoyed many hours of playing cards with friends, traveling with Kathy and David to Scotland, Israel, Italy, and more.

Sally and Alvin had three children, seven grandchildren, and 16 great-grandchildren.

A graveside service will be held on Saturday, November 29, 2025, at 2:00pm at Llano Cemetery, in Amarillo, TX.

Marcell "Marcy" Partusch

Marcy Raye Partusch, lovingly known as YaYa, of San Angelo, passed away on November 15, 2025, at the age of 68. She was born on October 25, 1957, in San Angelo, Texas, to T.P. and Vineta Linney.

From a young age, Marcy developed a deep love for horses and barrel racing. Though she was the youngest child, her vibrant personality and natural leadership often placed her at the center of every moment. She graduated from Central High School in 1976 and went on to proudly serve the San Angelo Chamber of Commerce for more than 20 years. Her involvement in the Fiesta Del Concho was a source of great pride, and she cherished the relationships she formed throughout her years of service.

On June 11, 2005, Marcy married the love of her life, Craig Partusch. They were true soulmates—devoted, inseparable, and a constant source of joy in each other’s lives.

Marcy’s love for people was unmatched. She was always ready for an outing, a gathering, or a celebration, and her family and friends could always count on her presence, enthusiasm, and support. Those who knew Marcy also knew the special place her beloved dogs held in her heart: Taffy, Daisy, Lucy, and CoCo.

Marcy is survived by her children: Jared and Amy Drew, Steven and Shayla Bell, and Lauren Partusch; her grandchildren: Clayton, Kinsley, Jaxon, August, Karsyn, Whells, and Theodora; and her siblings: Beverly and Griff Hanks, Darlene and Bob Norwood, and Clay Eaton and Sharon Ransbarger.

Carlie Jo Johnson

Carlie Jo Johnson of San Angelo, TX, who was as much at home with her friends across West Texas, passed from this life at the age of 19 to her Heavenly home on November 13th 2025. Carlie was born in Abilene, TX on December 28, 2005 to parents Doug and TaLisha (Rogers) Johnson. She eventually gave herself the middle name “Grace”, and she made sure her birthday was anticipated for months in advance and was not overshadowed by Christmas.

Carlie Jo grew up close to her big brother Hayden, and her baby sister Lanie ”Bob”. They, bonded on road trips, at family gatherings, and supporting each other in their activities. She had great pride & love for them both. In her world, everyone and everything seemed to be made just for her. Sunshine (pre) School was her domain to learn, sing, and play grown up, even making her whole preschool class sit on the steps so she could lead them in song. Baby sitters learned many lessons as she played out her many creative adventures. The living room was for captivating concerts. Emphasis on captive. College ministry students seemed to be big older play mates just for Carlie Jo, like when she locked them away in jail in her room.

Carlie lived moments to the fullest and then looked forward to experiencing what was next. From Lamar elementary, to Glenn Middle School, she enjoyed her place and teachers in each class, but anticipated the next grade and teacher. Carlie Jo participated in sports, but being an elite athlete was less important than the fun she had having teammates and riding with the team. One of her greatest joys and growth catalysts was LCCC…C, Lake Cisco Christian Camp. She lived for church camp, won Friendliest Girl Camper, and went back as a junior counselor at jr. camp. On June 15th, 2022 Carlie made Jesus her Lord, being baptized into Christ by Jyles Wootton.

At Miles High School, Carlie continued making new friends and loved car rides and jamming out. But she found her passion and put her gifts to use when she hopped into a band with 3 senior boys her freshman year. They discovered they sounded good and loved performing at local venues as much as possible. After their graduation, Carlie Jo found herself singing on the Paulann youth worship team and got to sing with the Sunday morning worship team occasionally. No stage was too big for Carlie, and she had a voice that could sooth, stun and compel the soul.

Carlie Jo was an Adam Sandler fan and loved her dogs. But If you think she loved her miniature schnauzer Darcy, and her giant schnauzer Goose, there’s no comparison to how deeply she loved her friends and family. Carlie considered several to be her best friend, and was happiest sleeping over as many consecutive nights as possible. If she was driving alone, she was simply on her way to either meet with friends, or possibly to see her twin cousins. Carlie moved back to Central High School and picked up with friends like she was never gone. In May of 2024, Carlie fought through over a month of chemo to finish early and get back home in time to walk the stage and graduate.

Carlie lived beautifully and true to herself. She was not defined by her struggles. Despite life-long health challenges and a long term battle with cancer, they could not keep her from shining through, singing, smiling, laughing, joking, loving and impacting countless others for Jesus by her faith and boldness.

Carlie Jo is survived by her mom and dad, TaLisha and Doug Johnson, siblings Hayden and Lanie Johnson; Great Grandmother; Dorothy Romines; Grandparents Pop and Meemee — Rusty and Carolyn Rogers, ReeRee and JD Davidson, and Papaw and Nano— Walden and Alma Johnson; Aunts and Uncles Tiffany and Dave Whitson, Derick and Courtney Rogers, Stephanie Lozano, Vanessa and JR Carr, Jennifer Portlock; and cousins: Kate, Elise, Teagan, Knox, Bristee, Lochlan, Kian, Corinne and Riley.

Carlie Jo is preceded in death by her great-grandmother Bobbie McKillip, cousin Shelby McKillip, friend Brandon Garza, and heavenly best friend Koti Goolsby White.

Visitation will be held Sunday, November 16th from 2-4pm at Harper Funeral Home in San Angelo, TX. Celebration of Life will take place Monday, November 17th at 3pm at Paulann church in San Angelo, TX.

In lieu of flowers, donations are encouraged to be made to ”A Wish with Wings” awww.org or “Angie’s Angels” angiesangels.love.

Thank you all for your faithful prayers, love and support for Carlie Jo and her family.

Ronald Ray Rogers

Ronald Ray Rogers, Ronnie to all who knew him, died Sunday morning, November 9, 2025, at Sagecrest Alzheimer’s Care Center in San Angelo’s Baptist Retirement Community where he had lived for two years. He was 84.

He was the second of three sons born to Ruth J. Lucas Rogers and Ray E. Rogers. Ronnie was born in Wingate, Texas on August 28, 1941only 11 months after his brother Robert Rogers and three years before Charles Rogers.

Ronnie and his brothers grew up in San Angelo and Ronnie gave his whole heart to West Texas. He could not imagine living anywhere else.

He never married, but he created a family that he loved and one that was devoted to him. When his childhood friend’s first child was born, Ronnie loved the baby, Banee, as if she was his own. When Banee married and had two daughters and a son, Brandy, Mark and Chelsea, he loved them. too. They treated him as a revered grandfather figure.

His professional life was dedicated to building bridges and highway overpasses throughout Texas. Talented at managing crews Ronnie successfully guided complex projects to completion each a testament to his skill and work ethic.

San Angelo’s Celebration Bridge dedicated in 1993 was one of his projects. He was in his early 50’s then and an insulin dependent diabetic for only a few years during that build. Life was still good, the disease manageable. But that would not last. Unable to control his blood sugar, he fell from a bridge and was badly hurt. Later he was hospitalized with ketoacidosis, a life-threatening condition.

After another round of ketoacidosis a few years ago, Ronnie was forced to move to Sagecrest.

He often talked about working as if he had a present-day work life. But on a recent afternoon he said it was time to “quit this outfit.”

“Good Goolamoola. They just do the same thing over and over… and nothing changes,” he said. He was ready to resign.

He is survived by his brothers, their wives, children and grandchildren and by the family- of-the-heart which began with Banee, daughter of his childhood friend.

Survivors are:

Robert and his wife, Nancy of San Angelo; their children Robby his wife, Kelly, of Weatherford their children Seth of Austin; Gunnar, his wife, Jenny, and baby Scotti Lynn of Fort Worth. Richey and his wife, Heather, of Austin; their children Dalton, his wife, Beka, of Colorada and Parker of Dallas.

Charles and his wife, Mary, their son Ben, his wife, Tracey, their daughters Morgan and Cate all of Fort Worth.
