Floyd D. Gates

Floyd Dow Gates of Wynnewood was born February 14, 1925 in Seminole, Oklahoma to Frank Hood Gates and Anna Montgomery Gates.

He passed away July 1, 2008 at Wynnewood, Oklahoma at the age of 83 years.

Mr. Gates served in the U.S. Army and was a veteran of World War II. He made his home in the Dallas and Bonham, Texas area where he worked in dry wall construction as a tape and bed man.

In the mid-1990s he moved to make his home near Wynnewood.

He lived in the country where he could enjoy the wild animals of just about any kind, but especially he liked horses. He also enjoyed: tinkering on old cars; dancing and playing his guitar and harmonica. What he loved most was his family.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Frank and Anna Gates; brothers, Lloyd Gates and Bernard Gates; and a sister, Thelma Jean Wood.

Surviving family include his children: Gary Lawrence and Larry Lawrence of Bristow, Floyd Dewayne Gates of Moore, Bobby Dean Gates of Oklahoma City, Martha Clayton, Terry Lynn Gates and Dowetta Jan Williams, all of Moore; his sister, Blanche Wolcott of Paoli; 20 grandchildren; 19 great-grandchildren; and a host of nieces and nephews.

Funeral services will be held Monday, July 7, 2008 at 10 a.m. at Stufflebean Chapel of Remembrance officiated by Rev. Mark Gaines.

Interment will be at Whitebead Cemetery under the direction of Stufflebean-Coffey Funeral Home. Notes of Remembrance and/or Condolences may be sent to the family at www.stufflebeanfuneralhome.com.
