On September 17, 2025, surrounded by his devoted daughters, our beloved father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, Homer Lewis Pritchet, entered peacefully into the presence of his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Homer was born on August 15, 1943, in Lamesa, Texas, to G. L. and Odessa Pritchet, humble cobblers who instilled in him the values of faith, family, and hard work. Raised with a deep respect for God and others, Homer lived his life as a testimony of Christian love. He was a proud Army veteran, a lifelong farmer, and attended Antioch Baptist Church.

For more than 30 years, Homer called the James Community of Center, Texas, his home, where he built a beautiful life with the love of his life, Dorothy Pritchet. Married for 50 years, their love was steadfast and enduring. Together they nurtured not only a family but a legacy of love, faith, and service.

Homer's joy was found in simple but profound things: driving his tractor across the land he loved, raising cattle with care, listening to his favorite gospel group The Hoppers, cheering on his Dallas Cowboys from his recliner, and—when Dorothy allowed—watching Fox News with a grin. His faith anchored him, and his family was his treasure.

To his children and grandchildren, Homer was more than a father—he was a rock, a role model, and a living example of a godly man. His son-in-law Matthew Miller was not only family but also his closest friend, "buddy," and partner in good-natured mischief. He taught us all how to love unconditionally, work diligently, and walk humbly with God.

He was preceded in death by his parents; his wife, Dorothy; two sisters, Glenna Pritchet  Bufkin and Evelyn "Tinker" Pritchet Tyler; and his granddaughter, Kara Miller.

He is survived by his beloved children: Felton Gilmore (MaryAnn), Cathy Dickerson (Bob), Charlotte Halvorson (Scott), and Sheri Miller (Matthew).

He also leaves behind his sisters Vickie Rawlings (Marty) and Linda Kaplan (Frank), both of Lamesa, TX; his cherished grandchildren Mylinda White, Mylissa Capp, Jonathan Gilmore, Jeremy Gilmore, Justyn Gilmore, LaniNicole Russell, Ana Helena, Jennifer Richards, Rey Soto, Callie Briggs, Lindsey Crandall, Brandon Halvorson, Derek Miller, Joshua Miller, Jared Miller, Matthew Miller Jr., Garrett Hoover; and 17 great-grandchildren who adored their "Pawpaw"; and numerous nephews and Nieces.

Homer's life was a blessing, his memory a treasure, and his faith in Christ our greatest assurance. Though we grieve, we rejoice knowing he is now reunited with his beloved Dorothy, his granddaughter Kara, and his Heavenly Father.

"Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints." —Psalm 116:15
