Cabler
Roy William Cabler, Jr. (11/22/1931 ?12/30/2010) Roy, a fifth generation Texan and longtime resident of Houston and Wimberley, died December 30th quietly and peacefully in his sleep at his ranch after a battle with Glio Blastoma Multiforme.
Roy graduated in 1950 from St. Thomas High School, worked for the Houston Chronicle in display advertising for 2 years and then served for 4 years in the U.S. Navy Reserve. He served 2 years active duty in California and Morocco. Roy received his B.S. in Chemical Engineering in 1961 from the University of Houston. Roy worked at Goodyear synthetic rubber plant during college traveling to Brazil to do start up work there on a plant. He left Goodyear in 1964 and joined Columbian Carbon Co. where he developed the commercial method of dispersing fine particle carbon black into low density polyethylene to be made into jacketing for telephone cables. In 1966 Roy joined Southwest Chemical and Plastics where he continued to perfect the dispersion process leading to considerable commercial success. In 1978 Roy formed Bayshore Industrial, Inc. making high quality plastic dispersions for the large Gulf Coast plastics industry. Bayshore was a serious, science based company, depending on better quality and service for its success. Bayshore was sold to ICO, Inc in 1996. Roy retired to his ranch in the Hill Country and applied his innovative mind and spirit to reestablish the badly damaged hydrologic cycle of his ranch. Roy spent many days in workshops put on by Travis County Extension Service to learn all that he could to make the changes in the land that he visualized.
Gideon Lincecum was a maternal GG grandfather of Roy and his writings about early times in Texas, Georgia, and Mississippi were treasured resources. Roy was not a hero worshipper, but if he ever had a hero, it would have been Gideon Lincecum of Longpoint, Washington County, Texas.
At the time of his death Roy was encircled by his devoted wife, his children, their spouses, his grandchildren and spouses, as well as four great grandchildren and a niece and grandnieces. The family burst into songs known to be his favorites as he traveled upwards to the heavens soaring like an eagle. Later in the evening, a magnificent fire was built where rounds of toast were made to celebrate this extraordinary man's life and accomplishments.
Roy is predeceased by his parents, Marie and Roy William Cabler, Sr., sister, Patty Bludeau, brother, Jerry Cabler, and half sister, Martha Ann Skinner, and grandson Bobby Bakalyar. Surviving siblings are Ellen Plowden, Richard Cabler, Paul Cabler, and Chris Cabler and countless nieces and nephews. Roy's legacy continues with his surviving family, which includes the love of his life, Jodi, his six children, Cathy Bishop, Carol Munn, Cassandra Brown, Will Cabler, Jack Cabler, and Tom Cabler; their respective spouses Jim Bishop, Harold Munn, Gary Brown, Cathy Cabler, Kim Cabler, and Stacy Cabler; his seventeen grandchildren: Angela Altmeyer, and her spouse Stewart, Shawn Bishop and spouse Ashley, Grace Debbink and spouse John Paul, Carol Lewis and spouse Byron, Casey Scott and spouse Jake, William Perrin, Calen, Austin, and Stephen Cabler, Victoria and Joseph Bishop, Olivia, Colton, Grant, and Ben Cabler, and Jake and Tyler Cabler, as well as four great grandchildren: Dorian and Mearabelle Bishop, Cassie Sue Lewis, and Cohen Jack Debbink.
We will celebrate Roy's life on the Epiphany, Thursday, Jan. 6th, 2011 at St. Stephens Episcopal Church in Wimberley, FM 3237, at 1:00pm. There will be a reception at 12:00pm in Mac Arthur Hall at the church. In lieu of flowers, if you choose, please make a donation to:
