Keith Texel Obituary
Texel was born May 19, 1939 to Ernest A. and Elsie (Pavel) Texel in Wahoo. He graduated from Wahoo High School and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln where he earned degrees in Psychology, Botany and Spanish.
On Dec. 2, 1962, he married Barbara Beers at Syracuse. He owned and operated an International Harvester Farm Equipment Dealership in Wahoo.
He was an active member of the First Presbyterian Church where he had served as a trustee and an elder. He was also a former member of the City Planning Commission.
Anyone who knew Keith knew that he was passionate about his Christmas decorations. He planted a huge garden and froze the produce for his family's use, and enjoyed giving fresh garden produce to his neighbors and friends. One of the pastimes he shared with his family was camping.
He was preceded in death by his parents; infant brother, Dennis; and father-in-law, Allen Beers.
He is survived by his wife Barbara, Wahoo; son and daughter-in-law, Timothy and Joan Texel of Lincoln; daughter, Kimberly Texel of Lincoln; son, Mark Texel of Omaha; brother, Donald Texel of Glendale, Ariz.; and three grandchildren.
