    Amos S. Kubik Amos S. Kubik, 90, of Duncan died Thursday, April 26, 2001, in Duncan. Service will be at 1 p.m. Tuesday in the Assumption Catholic Church with the Rev. Donald J. Wolf officiating. Burial will be in the Duncan Cemetery under the direction of Don Grantham Funeral Home in Duncan.

    Amos was born Jan. 25, 1911, in Chickasha to Joe and Lottie Givens Kubik. He married Mary Pat Sparks on June 19, 1933, in El Reno and she preceded him in death on Dec. 2, 1983. Amos had a genius for making and keeping friends. His early life was very hard as the middle of three brothers whose mother left the family when they were quite young. He grew to manhood in the early depression years, completed high school and became a cross-country bus driver, taking the longest routes for maximum income to support his family of four daughters and a son, in addition to other family members and friends down on their luck. He retired from his job with 44 years of safe driving and many, many friends along the routes and in the towns where his buses made stops and among his fellow drivers.

    Amos never allowed the frustrations and anxieties of this somewhat nomadic life, which kept him away from his beloved family many nights and most weeks, to overcome his basic good nature, deeply felt emotional ties to all kinds of people in all stations of life.

    Amos was deeply committed to economic and racial justice and made his personal life an example in the Jim Crow days of Oklahoma and Texas, standing by his union and his belief in equalities in a region that was generally hostile both to minorities and to unions. He never apologized for his political and social beliefs but he never seemed to give offense with them either...people knew that his ideas and beliefs were from the highest of motives and a sensitive, caring personality.

    Amos was an excellent woodworker, a very good mechanic and gifted with enormous common sense. He was never selfish with his money or goods or time and each of his children had a warm and affectionate relationship with him, although a very different one in each case.

    Amos and Mary Pat, his wife of 51 years, remained a loving couple to the very end of her life and they were blessed in his post-retirement years with the time to travel, to shop for the collectibles and antiques which they both loved and to work on their lovely home, largely built from a smaller place by Amos himself. The very many close friends of Amos Kubik and his descendants, who include five children, Ireta Kubik Litton of Woodland Hills, Calif., James "Pete" Kubik of Houston, Texas, Mary Sue Sparkman of Exton, Pa., Martha Ann Lewis of Tujunga, Calif., and Jo Pat Kubik of Marlow; a half-brother, Art Red; 12 grandchildren; and seven great-grandchildren, will hold the memory of this gentle, honest and loving person and of his devoted wife who preceded him in death for their time on this earth.

    Rest in peace. Bearers will be Robert Litton, Marc Litton, Joe Lewis, John Strong, Bill Strong and George Ausbrooks. Honorary bearer is Charles Strong.

    (Note: Amos was married twice after the death of his first wife. His second marriage was brief. His third wife, Francis, predeceased him).

    Amos married Mary Patricia O'Neill Sparks on 18 Jun 1933 in El Reno, Canadian County, Oklahoma. Mary (daughter of James Rufus Sparks and Annie Josephine O'Neill) was born on 8 Mar 1914 in Oklahoma; died on 2 Dec 1983 in Duncan, Stephens County, Oklahoma; was buried in Duncan Municipal Cemetery, Duncan, Stephens County, Oklahoma.
