Robert Dudley Stephenson III, 49, of Canyon died Wednesday, Nov. 7, 2007.

Services will be at 3 p.m. Monday in First United Methodist Church in Canyon with the Rev. John McClean, pastor, officiating. Burial will be in Dreamland Cemetery. Arrangements are by Brooks Funeral Directors of Canyon.

Robert Dudley Stephenson III was born Dec. 31, 1957, in Dennison, Iowa, to Robert Dudley and Ann Martin Stephenson. He graduated from Borger High School and attended college at Oklahoma State University, Texas Christian University, and West Texas State University, where he received his Bachelor's Degree in General Studies. He played football for Oklahoma State University and Texas Christian University.

Not only was Dudley an amazing father to his children, but he also gave countless hours of service to the younger generation of the Panhandle. He was a father figure to every person he was involved with. His love for service through coaching radiated through the community. Not very many athletes went through Canyon High School without being trained by Dudley at some point in their life, and he had an amazing gift of being able to see the hidden potential in every child. He was the perfect husband, father, son, brother, and friend.

Survivors include his wife, Tammy Stephenson; four children, Robbie Stephenson of Los Angeles, Laci Waner and husband Chris of San Antonio, Caleb Stephenson and wife Natalie and Dana Stephenson, all of Canyon; a grandson, Kylen Waner; his mother, Ann Stephenson of Canyon; his father, Robert Stephenson and wife Melinda of Amarillo; a brother, Douglas Stephenson and wife Kenna of East Texas; six sisters, Sarah Black and husband Charles, Valenica Muniz and husband Alvero, Allison Stephenson and Meridith Stephenson, all of Amarillo, Tracy Dodd and husband Eric of Lake Meredith and Elsie Heil and husband Shaun of Meridian, Idaho; and numerous nieces and nephews.

The family suggests memorials be to the Stephenson Memorial Fund in care of Happy State Bank, 1908 4th Ave., Canyon, TX 79015.
