Jerry Roger MyCue, age 83 of McQueeney, passed away on March 6, 2025. Jerry was born in Seguin, Texas on November 24, 1941 to Arline (Koepsel) and Roger MyCue.
Raised in Seguin, Jerry graduated from Seguin High School Class of 1960. Jerry earned his Bachelor of Industrial Arts and Master of Arts from Southwest Texas State University, and began his teaching career at Kermit High School. In 1967 he and Carol moved back to Seguin where he took over the Industrial Arts Department at Seguin High School and turned it into a first class state recognized program.
In 1972 he was offered a position with the Texas Education Agency, where he took what he accomplished at Seguin High School and was able to spread it to schools all across the state. His true passion while at the Agency was the Industrial Arts Competition, he grew that program to include over 10,000 volunteers, teachers, and students, as they competed with their wood, metal, and drafting projects and various other areas of Industrial Arts. After 21years with T.E.A., Jerry returned to Seguin High School where as he did his time before, he continued to touch and inspire many lives.
After retiring from teaching, Jerry continued to design and draw house plans for anyone who needed his knowledge and advice. Jerry liked traveling and camping with Carol and their group The Road Runners. Most important was spending time with his grandsons and as of late his great grandchildren, this is when you really saw the sparkle in his eyes, as he read them books and continued to teach as he had done his entire life.
Jerry is preceded in death by his parents, father-in-law, Kurt Schievelbein, his brother Richard “Dickie” MyCue, and brothers-in-law, Jimmie Johnson, G.R. “Bob” Hyatt, III and John Nash, III.
Survivors include his loving wife of 62 years, Carol MyCue; son, Brent MyCue; grandsons, Darren MyCue, Mason MyCue and wife Kylie and Jaxon Mycue; great-grandchildren, Louise MyCue and Lucian MyCue; siblings, Judy Johnson Hyatt, Scotty MyCue and wife Jacque, Merry Douberly and husband Ed, and Teri Nash Even and husband Mark; mother-in-law, Margaret Schievelbein; brothers-in-law, Fernon Schievelbein and wife Julia, and Kurt Schievelbein and wife Debbie; numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, other loving family members and a host of friends.
