WOMACK, Charles Charles Womack was a renowned architect whose work is on view all around Dallas and in other major cities. Charles won many important architectural awards for his designs, including a number of prestigious McSAM awards for his residential projects. At a time when he still looked like a kid, Charles opened his own architectural firm at the age of 25. His most recent accomplishments were with the firm of Womack-Hampton. Charles was born on May 13, 1950, to proud parents Jay and Helen Womack. He had an idyllic childhood, back when you could still ride your bike all over the place, play in the creek, and not come home till dark. He loved visiting the farms of his grand-parents, Claude and Lee Ring and Arthur and Ida Belle Womack, near Floydada, Texas. From an early age, he could draw anything, so architecture was a natural fit for him. He graduated from the Texas Tech College of Architecture, where he was chosen to design the dome of the Robert Ewalt Student Recreation Center. Charles was a funny guy-funny ha ha. He had a talent for humor that had been passed down from his father and grandfather, a talent shared by the rest of the Womack family. He had a joke to fit every occasion-almost none of them G-rated. He was an accomplished musician and was quick to pick up a guitar and launch into a song, often joining whatever band was playing on the stage. In high school at Thomas Jefferson, he sang the lead in The Flower Drum Song. Coincidentally, his wife Paula starred in The Flower Drum Song at her high school in Chickasha, Oklahoma. To make extra money while he was in college, Charles worked delivering pizza while wearing a Beatle wig, and played Bob Dylan songs in a coffee house. He was a hit at both jobs. Charles was a devoted husband to Paula and father to Zachary, Kristel, and Jeremy. Sadly, Jeremy died in 2015. He is survived by his beloved wife Paula Phillips Womack; by Zach Womack and his daughter Sasha; by Kristel Womack-Moreno, husband Brad Moreno, and son River; and by Jeremy's daughter Meadow. He is also survived by his sister Deona and husband Stan Carmack, brother Steve Womack and wife Marlene, and their children Megan Baker and Tyler Womack and their families, as well as his aunt Sue Ring Bain, and many cherished Ring and Womack aunts, uncles and cousins. There will be a private service on Sunday November 26 at 3:00 pm in the Wildwood Chapel at Restland Cemetery, TI Boulevard and Greenville Avenue. Charles's wish was to have a Celebration of Life for the many special people in his life, which will be announced at a later date.
