Hurschel Wesley Carey, 92, loving husband, father and grandpa, Augusta, passed away peacefully at his home on Tuesday, Nov. 26, 2013.
For the last four years he put up a courageous battle with health issues and always kept a smile in the face of adversity. At the same time he was the strength of the family.

He served his country during World War II and received a purple heart and a bronze star. He married Virginia Pauline Warwick on March 15, 1946, in Coffeyville, Kan. Hurschel retired as a superintendent from natural gas and oil pipeline companies which took him and his family to Kuwait Asia, Alaska, and all across the United States. After retirement he owned and operated H & C Trucking Company. He also obtained his private pilot's license.
His survivors include: his son, Bob Carey; daughters and their husbands, Sherrie and Howard Johnson and Tammee and Randy Yates, all of Augusta; daughter-in-law, Tina Carey of Anthony, Kan.; a brother and his wife, Harry and Betty Carey of Chanute, Kan.; a sister-in-law, Mary Carey of Humboldt; three grandchildren, Michelle (David) Carr, Kevin and Justin (Emily) Carey; four greatgrandchildren, Contessa, Austin, Katie and Chris, and one great-great-grandchild, Alexis Marie Carr.
