Charles Dudley Wells, age 68 of Purcell, passed away Tuesday, March 19, 2013, at his home. Dudley was born January 25, 1945 in Mabank, TX, the 2nd of five children born to James Dudley Wells and Juanita Ruth (Grasham) Wells. The family moved from West Texas to Purcell when Dudley was young. While in school, Dudley played football, but his first love was track, and he still today holds the Dragon record for the discus throw. He graduated from Purcell High School in 1963.
Later that same year, he married his best friend and true love, Connie Ann Mantooth. Together they raised two sons, John and Jeff. Dudley worked for many years as a tool pusher and driller in offshore oil rigs. His work would allow him an opportunity to travel and see the world, and even live overseas. Dudley cherished his family and looked forward to family get-togethers where he could cookout for everyone. He loved spending time at the lake, fishing and skiing. Dudley was kind hearted, and a great provider for his family. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him!
