Nevis Hagler Obituary
1943-2021
Nik (Nevis Ezelle) Hagler, 77, of Pearland, TX, passed away April 6, 2021 from lung cancer.
Born in Center, TX May 31, 1943, he graduated from Center High School, continued his education with a BA and MA from Stephen F. Austin State University and obtained a Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Florida.
Always an avid golfer, Nik's career as a professor in various universities moved to becoming a professional actor: film (see IMBD), television and stage. He served a short time as President of the Houston local of SAG/AFTRA, as 8th VP Regional Branch and almost a decade on the SAG/AFTRA Foundation Dale Scholarship Committee.
Nik is survived by his wife of 37 years, Susan Hagler, his daughter Kim Lovelace (Chris), his grandchildren Kayla & Cooper Lovelace and Morgan & Lindsey McGee, as well as other family and friends. He is preceded in death by his parents, Nevis and Martha Francis Hagler, daughter Lisa McGee, and brother Larry Hagler.

I knew Nik back in 1978, when I was in a play with him at the Country Playhouse in Houston. I kept trying to find him on LinkedIn and Facebook, however, I never knew his first name was Nevis. He was listed in the theatre programs as Nik. He was an excellent actor, with a great sense of humor, and was never full of himself, as some actors can be. He was one of those people in life that make a lasting impression and good memories as well. My condolences to his family, whom I met briefly at a gathering at his home decades ago.
