Guy Hawk, the son of Jess and Lillie (Seabolt) Hawk, was born April 6, 1945
in Stilwell, Oklahoma and went home to be with the Lord on April 17, 2018 at
his home in Stilwell surrounded by a loving family at the age of 73 years
and 11 days.
Guy
loved sports and was a diehard OU fan but also enjoyed watching the Denver
Broncos, Redskins and the Dodgers. Next to the Sooners he loved watching WWE.
Guy loved playing baseball and as a shortstop he had a natural curve ball
that landed him an offer from the Phillies. Although drafted, he chose to
remain in his hometown. Fishing and restoring cars were also favorite
hobbies he enjoyed. His children remember him saying “Put your elbow into
it” while helping him sand his cars.
Guy was
known to be a clown and loved to laugh and be ornery. He took much pleasure
in cutting the whiskers of the family cat. When he became sick he told his
nurse that he was in the Civil War. He was very competitive and wanted his
kids to be the very best. It was important to all his kids to make Dad
proud.
Guy was always ready to help someone calm down by lending a listening ear.
He
was a member of Salem Baptist Church. He answered the call to preach the
gospel and served God faithfully long as his health permitted.
He
was preceded in death by his parents, Jess and Lillie Hawk and his brother
Duggie Chuculate.
He
leaves behind to cherish his memory, his wife of 39 years, Shirley Hawk of
the home; his children, Oleta St. Pierre and husband Robert of Stilwell,
Cynthia Pack and husband Larry of Stilwell, Keisha Johnson and husband Earl
of Stilwell, Guy Hawk and wife Jennifer of Stilwell, Michael Hawk and wife
