Alton Foxworth

Alton Wayne Foxworth, 77, of Nederland, died Saturday, July 9, 2022. He was born March 2, 1945, in Beaumont, to Mary Beatrice Wagnon Foxworth and John W. Foxworth. Alton was a United States Army Reserve veteran. He retired from Pipefitters Local 211 after fifty-five years of service.

Alton enjoyed playing Dominos, gardening, and playing guitar. He was quite the joke teller and a wonderful dancer. When Alton was younger, he loved fishing with his grandmother. That is likely what inspired him to be so involved with his own grandchildren. He cherished his time with each of them.

He is preceded in death by his parents; grandparents; and twin daughters, Darla and Karla.
