Phillip Dean Ozment passed into the arms of the Lord on August 31, 2022 in Sugar Land, Texas. We are eternally grateful that family was able to be by his side the morning of his passing. Born in Holdenville, Oklahoma to Dean and Hazel Ozment, Phil grew up on the beloved family farm near Wetumka, Oklahoma. He graduated from Wetumka High School where he excelled in academics making the Honor Roll. He was also an All-State athlete in both basketball and football.

They soon married on September 3, 1960. This union was blessed with son, Phillip Andrew and daughter Roxanne B.

Phil took a job working for Baroid and the family moved to Liberty, Texas in 1963. He then worked in outside steel sales working with his brother, Dick at Metal and Tubes.
