    Notes 
    • Obituary from the FindAGrave Memorial Page created by Michael and Jennifer McBride.

      With her two daughters at her bedside, Billie Krause departed this earthly life Tuesday morning March 15, 2011. Mrs. Krause was born April 9, 1923, to parents George Wesley McBride and Ruth Madeline Moss McBride in Denning, Texas.

      Her childhood was spent in San Augustine until she finished high school. After graduating from Business College in Beaumont, Texas, she worked for Western Union in New Orleans. With the coming of World War II she transferred to New York where she met and married her husband of 54 years, Richard Hermann Krause, Jr. After completing his military service Mr. and Mrs. Krause moved their two young daughters to Freeport, Texas, where Mr. Krause worked for Dow Chemical. Her family was completed with the birth of their son in Freeport. Mrs. Krause lived in Freeport for more than 50 years raising her three children and entertaining her four grandchildren.

      Mrs. Krause was employed by several children's clothing stores but she always considered her primary role as a wife, mother and homemaker, at which she excelled. Following the death of her husband on 1999, she moved to Nacogdoches in 2004. Mrs. Krause was a faithful and devoted member of the Church of Christ in every location in which she lived. As befitted her life, one of her last conscious acts was assembling to worship God with fellow Christians the last Sunday morning of her life.

      Survivors include daughters Martha Emerson Page of Nacogdoches, Mary Louise Jobe and husband Bill of Nacogdoches, son Richard Stuart Krause of Federal Way, Washington; grandchildren Richard Stuart Krause, Jr. and wife Tara of Austin, Kelli Krause Paddock and husband Travis of Renton, Washington, Aaron Jobe and wife Corley of Nacogdoches, Paige Jobe Perez and husband Mike of Waco; great-grandchildren Austin, Cody and Jackson Paddock of Renton, Washington, Piper Jobe of Nacogdoches and Zachary Krause of Austin; sister Betty Barclay of Tyler; brother-in-law J.D. Harkrider of Nacogdoches; sister-in-law Mimi McConnell of North Ft. Myers, Florida, numerous nieces and nephews, and three special cousins; Elton, Thelma, and Winnie Nicholson.

      Funeral Service will be held at 2:00 pm Thursday, March 17, 2011, at Cason Monk-Metcalf Sunset Chapel. Conducting the services will be Randy Harshbarger of Stallings Drive Church of Christ in Nacogdoches, and nephew Robert Harkrider of Orlando, Florida. Interment will follow at Lower Chireno Cemetery in Chireno, Texas.
