He is survived by his son, Royce Bunnell and his wife Mary; daughter, Diana Jeske and her husband David; sister, Vivian Corder; grandchildren, Drew, Dustin, Dane, and Diannah Jeske, and Chris and Kelsi Bunnell; and a host of many other family and friends.
Eldon was born on July 27, 1938 in Gatesville, Texas and resided in the Houston area since 1963. He had a successful career with IBM for 25 years and was even an EMU Rancher for a short time. Eldon enjoyed fishing and found adventure in any outdoor excursion. He enjoyed spending time with his family and was affectionately known to his grandchildren as "Pappy." For most of his life, Eldon was blessed with good health, but in 2001 began to have a few setbacks. He always maintained his love of life and was usually a spur of the moment person, up for anything at anytime. Eldon will always be remembered for his idea that, "More is better!"
A visitation and graveside service was held on Tuesday, April 26, 2010 at 2:00 p.m. at Odd Fellows Cemetery in Gatesville, Texas.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be sent in Eldon's honor to the Ladies Auxiliary VFW Post 581, 27 Farrell, Houston, TX 77022.
Arrangements under the direction of Clayton Funeral Home.
