James Lee Truelock
February 25, 1956 - November 27, 2020
So you know "The Rest of the Story" James Lee Truelock was born February 25, 1956 in Paducah, TX to James & Maurice Truelock and finished his story on Friday, November 27, 2020. James Lee was loved by all who knew him. You could always count on him for a great joke, "orders" on how to do something, or the best place to eat (anywhere you go). James loved his food!!! He met and married the love of his life, LaDonna Potts on November 20, 1976. James Lee made his life pipelining & LaDonna was always by his side. The Lord decided James was going to pay for his raising, & blessed James & LaDonna with their first daughter, Jennifer-his side kick and then came along his baby girl, Amy. James was a master at all things. He was a pipeliner, mechanic, pecan farmer, junker, and his brother (and many other's) race car mechanic. There probably was not a weekend as the girls were growing up, you didn't catch the Truelock gang at the racetrack. The highlight of James Lee's life was when he became a Gramps. He dotingly nicknamed his granddaughter Paige Avary "The Boss" & Gramps & Nana took her on many adventures. Amy learned early on you should never let Gramps and "The Boss" go shopping on their own!! Then came along the grandson he had wished for, Brennen Colt but as Gramps called him, "The Sheriff". The Sheriff could always seem to talk Gramps into something. James Lee had a heart of gold and would give you the shirt off his back. He left a lasting impression on everyone he came across. He was met in heaven by his parents, James & Maurice, nephew, Ron Truelock & so many other family and friends who were eager to see him. Those left to cherish his lasting memories are his wife of 44 years, LaDonna Truelock, daughter Jennifer Stout and husband Chris of Odessa, and daughter Amy Floyd and husband Robert of Lubbock. His spoiled grandkids, Paige Floyd (Bryce Handy) and Brennen Floyd. Brothers, Robbie Truelock and wife Jana of Eastland and Jim Bob Truelock and wife Mitzi of Robert Lee. Son-of-the-Heart, W. Robbie Truelock and wife Margie, Sister-of-the-heart, Debi Ward and husband Norman. Brother in laws, Bobby Simmons and wife Joyce, Johnny Simmons. Sister in law, Martha Haygood and husband David. As well as many nieces, nephews, cousins, family, and lifelong friends.
