Archie Creech married the love of his life, Theda Fay Flanagan on 11 June 1945. They were married in Fannin County, Texas. Six children were born to them, 5 boys and a girl, Larry Don, Jimmy Dean (who preceded Archie in death) Michael Boyd, Becky Carlene, Jackie Glen, and Dwight Lynn.

Archie retired from E-Systems as an aircraft electrician but was known around Leonard as the TV man. He was one of the best TV repairmen in town. After retiring from E-systems, he started a small engine repair shop where he spent his summer days repairing lawnmowers.

My dad's love was his family. There was never anything that my dad would not do for one of us kids. He was by no means a saint but in a little girl's eyes or in the eyes of his grown daughter, he was my saint.

Just melancholy tonight, Dad. Missing you and Mom. Perhaps it is the change in the weather or it is the time of year that I always started plotting a trip to Texas to see you guys. I just know I miss you and love you so much.

Dad, I seemed to have found myself the proud new owner of a German Shepherd puppy. Ironically, I look at her and memories of you come flooding back to the days of Rudy, Champ and Kody. She is a real tooter, Dad. Now it is much easier for me to see why y...(Read more)
