Hubert Russell Cockerell passed away Friday, Aug. 28, 2015 at his home in Potosi. Born June 16, 1951 in Breckenridge, Texas, he was the second son of Everett and Louise (Pendleton) Cockerell.
According to his wishes, Hubert will be cremated. Visitation will be held Monday, August 31, 2015 from 10am to 11am at Bethel Assembly in Anson with a memorial service starting at 11:00 a.m. Cody Cochran will officiate. Arrangements are being handled by Elliott-Hamil Funeral Home.
Hubert was preceded in death by his parents, and brother Donnie. He is survived by son, Lance of Clyde; grandchildren, Cylee and Cole of Clyde; brother Sammy of Abilene/Tye, numerous cousins, and a host of friends.
An avid hunter and outdoorsman, Hubert was never happier than when he was hunting, talking about hunting, or planning to go hunting. He was known for always wearing long handles, even in the summer.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the West Texas Rehabilitation Center, 4601 Hartford, Abilene, TX 79605.

I will miss Hubert very much. He was a great guy and an amazing friend to my mom and stepdad Rickey and Bonnie Cowley. I grew up around Hubert and went hunting with him and my step dad all time. I loved when he could come over to the house and eat dinner with us he was a part of our family. RIP Hubert

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this hard time in your lives. Sammy, we are so sorry for your loss. It's very hard to lose a brother much less two. Lance and family, we are so sorry for the loss of your father and your kid's grandfather. Hubert was a good man and friend and he will be missed. Hope you all are comforted by your memories and in knowing Hubert and Donnie are once again hunting together.
