Jim K. Owens

Jim was born and grew up in Lawton, Oklahoma and graduated from Lawton High School in 1960. He attended Cameron University for two years. He moved to Edmond in 1962 to attend UCO and graduated with a Master’s degree in 1966. During this time he met and married the love of his life, Coye Ann in 1965. They have been married for 52 years.

Jim worked in the oil and gas business for 40+ years. Jim and Terry Horton initiated the Edmond 4th of July Celebration that we enjoy today. He also enjoyed playing golf at Oak Tree and Twin Hills Golf and Country Club with his friends.

Jim is survived by his wife, Coye Ann; his children, Kyle and Tara; his five grandchildren; one great-grandson; and brother, Johnny.

He will be missed dearly by family and friends.
