Graveside services for J. B. Rhea of Roswell will be 2 p.m. Tuesday, September 16, at Resthaven cemetery in Lubbock. He peacefully transitioned to Heaven on Sept.13, 2008, two days shy of his 95th birthday. Rick Rapp of Gateway Church of Roswell will officiate. Honorary pallbearers will be Lubbock associates Jack McQueen, Bobby McQueen, Jeff Wheeler, Gordon Downum, and Bob Tate; and the members of the Rotary Club of Roswell.
J. B. was born in Hewitt on Sept. 15, 1913, to J. H. and Lottie Rhea. His parents; his older sister, Regina Rhea Franks; and his wife, Kathryn Hudman Rhea, preceded him in death.
He is survived by his son and daughter-in-law, Hud and Roxanne Rhea of Roswell; daughter and son-in-law, Ryn and Russell Bowers of Houston; and his sister-in-law, Evelyn Hudman Smith of Lubbock. Other survivors include grandchildren, David Rhea and wife Kelly, Robin and husband Larry Parker, Barton Bowers and Brian Bowers. He is also survived by his great-grandchildren, Melody and Michael Pasqualini, Landon and Aimee Rhea, and Hannah Parker and Kase Parker.
J. B. began his long career in the motion picture theater business while attending Lubbock High School, and later as a Texas Tech student. As an employee of the Griffith Amusement Company, he worked his way up the ladder with jobs including usher, doorman, projectionist, assistant house manager, house manager, assistant manager, and manager of multiples theaters in numerous towns around the circuit in West Texas and Oklahoma.
In July, 1937, J. B. married
Kathryn Hudman. Following the birth of their son, Hud, in 1938, and their daughter, Ryn, in 1942, J. B. volunteered to serve in the United States Army during World War II. He saw hazardous duty in the South Pacific and the Philippines as a forward observer for the artillery.
Following the war, he resumed his theater career in Norman, Okla., and later in Lubbock. Throughout his involvement with the motion picture industry, he was known for his innovative, creative, and attention-getting publicity campaigns. His favorite was a three-day horseback ride, during a January blizzard, from Amarillo to Elk City, Okla., to deliver the reels of film for the upcoming attraction and, more importantly, to prove that it could be done and that he was the man who could do it.
Following his retirement from the theater business in 1968, J. B. began a second career as the Executive Director of the Lubbock Board of Realtors, which flourished under his leadership. When he retired again in 1981, he and Kathryn moved to Roswell to be nearer their family. J. B. soon had a third "career," caring for Kathryn as she struggled against Parkinson's disease. Ever the epitome of a gentleman, he truly "laid down his life" for his wife, the love of his life.
J. B. was very active in civic affairs wherever he lived. He especially enjoyed chairing the Lubbock Chamber of Commerce's Military Affairs Committee. He was an expert marksman and avid hunter. He was an accomplished horseman, and a charter member of the American Quarter Horse Association. He was a Rotarian for 69 years, and was named a Paul Harris Fellow in 2002.
For those who may wish to honor J. B.'s memory, donations may be sent to:
Rotary Club of Roswell, P. O. Box 163, Roswell, NM 88202 or to Gateway Christian School Building Fund, 1900 N. Sycamore, Roswell, NM 88201.
