Daddy was a beloved husband of many years, father, grandfather and great grandfather. He enjoyed NASCAR, fishing, boating, camping, and spending time on Lake Sam Rayburn. You could find him most days sitting on his back porch watching all that Mother Nature had to offer.

He is also survived by a special friend, aka the son that he never had, Richard Blanchard.

He will be dearly missed by all.

We know that we can't have you but we're happy knowing that the angels have finally got you back. Goodbye to a wonderful and generous man and a sweet handsome daddy.

A graveside service for Mr. Creel will be held at 3:00 pm Friday, July 15, 2022 at Sterling White Cemetery Pavilion in Highlands, Tx.
