What a beautiful send-off on Saturday! I have only the fondest memories of Llewellyn and the whole Powell family. Your fine family owes so much of its strength and grace to Billy and Llewellyn. Being the humble man that I knew him to be, I doubt he realized what an impact he had on so many lives, mine included. Since he was my godfather, from an early age I identified him closely with God! The Lord certainly had a faithful representative here on earth in Llewellyn Powell. We all are so...

Dear Powell Family:
I was saddened to hear of the passing of Mr. Powell. As a young engineer in Dallas in the early 1980’s, I had occasion to meet Mr. Powell many times. My Father, Billy L. Stephenson, who was also a civil engineer, was a friend and we would often see Mr. Powell at various professional society meetings. Mr. Powell was an inspiration.

Dear Powell family,

I am writing for the Nick Mumford family. Our sympathies are with you at this time of your loss.

Dear Powell family,
The McGill family mourns the death of your father/father-in-law/grandfather/greatgrandfather along with you. Married to my godmother, he continued to influence my life throughout his.

What a great spirit, what a great gift to the world and to the church, what a great gift to...

Abraham Lincoln said, "And in the end, it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years." Mr. Powell excelled in both quality and quantity of life, from the work he completed and the lives that he touched. I barely knew Mr. Powell but know some of his family and am confident in saying that the planet is a better place because of him.
My condolences to his family and friends.
