Thelbert Wesley Hawk Obituary (1933

Thelbert Wesley Hawk, 81, died Sunday, February 22, 2015 in Poulsbo, WA. Hawk was born on March 25, 1933 to Konley and Minnie Oma (Owens) Hawk in Bloomfield Missouri. He went on to serve honorably in the US Army from 1953-1955 during the Korean War, earning the rank of CPLT5. After leaving active service, you could always find Hawk working and playing hard. His success in business can be directly attributed to his work ethic and natural mechanical ability. Hawk's attention to detail was legendary and he showed it as owner of Hawk's Truck Repair in Oxnard, CA. Hawk took pride in the fact that he always left his customers satisfied and loved anything that had to do with trucks, cars and boats. Hawk retired from the business three years ago. When Hawk wasn't being a business owner, he enjoyed racing boats and dune buggies, and water skiing. Hawk's memory will live on with his daughter, Sandra Dee Hawk Nelson; granddaughters, Cortney, McKenzie, and Christine Nelson; and his siblings. "He fought a good fight, he kept the faith, he won the race!"
