John McMullan Obituary

SAN ANGELO John Kemper McMullan, 85, went to spend eternity with his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on May 25, 2013. A celebration of Johnnie's life will be held at 11 a.m. Wednesday, May 29, at Johnson's Funeral Home with a graveside service to follow in Fairmount Cemetery. Johnnie was born Feb. 6, 1928, in San Angelo. He grew up on the family ranch east of Iraan. He married his soulmate, Peggie, on March 27, 1953, in Big Lake, Texas. In the early 1960s, Johnnie sought the Lord for direction for himself and his family. Through his relationship with Jesus Christ, he had the courage to make changes in his life. After getting his degree from Texas Tech University in 1965, the family moved to the ranch and taught science and math in the Iraan-Sheffield School District for 24 years. Johnnie loved teaching to all ages, whether it was in the classroom or the roping arena. His nickname to those close to him was "Johnnie Rope" because of his total commitment to education and the advancement of rodeo. He is preceded in death by his parents, Floyd Kemper and Laura (Gramma Dear) McMullan; grandson Beau Dean McMullan; and nephew Shawn McMullan. He is survived by his wife, Peggie; son Dean and wife Deb, son David and wife Mary; daughter Lee and husband Mike Kelly; and son Johnny and wife Cindy Middleton. Grandchildren include Tate McMullan and wife Amber, Deak McMullan, Tessie and husband Blake Doyle, Lillian and husband Jess Seward, and Arlis McMullan, Erin Kelly, Jacob Kelly, Kim and husband Jim Fishpaw and Lauren and husband Cody Craig; and great-grandchildren Quinton McMullan, Victoria, Raegan and Kellan Fishpaw and Ellie Rhea Craig. He is also survived by his sister, June and husband Abe Berberian of Brazil; and brother Kenny and wife Glenda McMullan and daughter Mecca; and many other nieces, nephews and cousins. Special family members include Debbie Rex Pickett and Kenny Bill Gage. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to American Junior Rodeo Association (www.ajra.org) to support the scholarship fund or Baptist Hospice. Family and friends may sign the online register book at www.johnsons-funeralhome.com.

We are sad to here about the passing of Mr. McMullen. My Mom was just saying how much my Dad(Neal) enjoyed talking to him, as they taught together so many years. My memories of him were Jr. High science classes, and "black beauty"! He is one of those teachers you never forget. The entire family is in our thought and prayers. It is so sad to lose another man we all looked up to!

Got the phone call this morning from Sammie Stone with the sad news about Johnnie. He was like a big brother to me at Texas Tech and a christan mentor. Like many others of you, Johnnie and the rest of the MCMULLAN FAMILY made me feel at home. I know that Johnnie will be there to greet us when we get to Heaven.
