Raymond “Pee Paw” Owens, of Amarillo, Texas, passed away on November 9, 2026. He was born on July 19, 1952, in Muleshoe, Texas, and lived a life filled with hard work, dedication, and love for the people who meant the most to him.

 To know Pee Paw was to know a man who loved his family and enjoyed the simple things in life. He didn't need much to make a good day. He was perfectly happy spending time at home, watching his favorite TV shows, enjoying a cold Dos Equis, or sitting down to a good meal surrounded by good company. It was the little moments, the familiar faces, and the time spent with loved ones that made life special to him.

In his younger years, Pee Paw enjoyed adventure and the outdoors. He spent his time scuba diving and hunting, making memories and enjoying the things he loved. Throughout his life, he carried a strong work ethic and a determination to provide and take care of those around him. He worked as a flight mechanic for over 30 years, dedicating many years of his life to his career. His years of hard work reflected the kind of man he was dependable, dedicated, and never afraid to put in the effort.

Pee Paw was a hardworking man with a generous heart. He was the kind of person who would help anyone and everyone he could, never hesitating to lend a hand when someone needed it. He believed in showing up for others and doing what he could to make a difference. His willingness to help, his love for those close to him, and the memories he created along the way are just a few of the things that made him special.

 Above all, Pee Paw loved his family. His children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren were an important part of his life, and the memories they shared with him will be treasured for generations to come. Whether it was sharing a meal, spending time together, or simply enjoying each other's company, those moments will forever hold a special place in their hearts. His family will remember him not only for the things he did, but for the man he was and the love he gave.

He was preceded in death by his parents; his wife; and his two sisters, Dale Clary and Debbie Counts.

Those left to cherish his memory and carry on his legacy include his siblings Sharon Worth, Janice Estep, John Owens, and Laura Owens, and he’s children, Amber Rominger and George Smith; his grandchildren, Melissa Cortez and her husband, Emmanuel Cortez, Brooke Villareal, and Robert Grant; and his great-grandchildren, Elena and Ezekiel Cortez.

Though his family must now say goodbye, the memories of Pee Paw will live on in the stories shared, the laughter remembered, and the love that will continue through the generations of his family. He leaves behind a legacy of hard work, kindness, generosity, and devotion to those he loved. He will be remembered for the simple pleasures he enjoyed, the helping hand he was always willing to give, and the special place he held in the hearts of his family.

Pee Paw will be deeply missed, lovingly remembered, and forever cherished by all who knew him. No services are scheduled at this time.
