Al Langley
With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Al Langley of Sparks, Nevada, who left us on Friday, December 22, 2023. He was born on October 9, 1933, and lived a full and joyous life. He was preceded in death by his parents, Alvin and Bamma Langley and by his brothers James and Kenneth Langley.
Al is survived by his beloved wife of 65 years, Ann Mazy of Waxahachie, and their six children: Joe (wife Debbie), Ann Marie (husband Tom Gooch), Julie (husband Lynn Drake), J-D. (wife LaDonna), Jackie (husband Randy Poteete), and Jenny. Papa Al leaves behind a lasting legacy as a proud grandfather of 14 grandchildren and 8 great grandchildren.
Following service in the Airforce, Al enjoyed a career as a business forms printing press operator before embarking on a fulfilling second chapter as a rural mail carrier. Beyond his professional endeavors, Al found immense joy in his favorite family activities – camping and spending weekends on the beach of local lakes and daily board games he shared with Ann.
A memorial service to celebrate Al’s life will be held on January 19, 2024, at 1 p.m. at Our Mother of Sorrows Chapel, Reno, NV. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests contributions to a favorite charity, honoring Al’s spirit of generosity and care.
May the memories of Al’s vibrant life bring comfort to all who knew and loved him during this sorrowful time.
