Billy Joe Haddock

Billy Joe Haddock, 93, of Kellyville, passed away on the morning of November 6, 2026.

Bill was born in Skiatook on November 7, 1932, to parents Raymond and Gladys Haddock. He was the fourth-born of 16 children.

Bill graduated from Central High School in Tulsa and married Jeanne Harmon shortly thereafter. Bill and Jeanne were married for 72 years.

He served our country proudly in the United States Army. He was stationed in Germany, where Jeanne gave birth to their first child, Marcia Ann.

Bill attended Tulsa University, studying Professional Engineering, and went on to a successful career as an ASME Code Inspector for 49 years. He obtained his Nuclear Certification and became one of only seven people in the United States to achieve this at that time.

Billy was a longtime member of the Masonic Lodge in Tulsa and a former Toastmaster.

Bill Haddock had an optimistic view of life and an open heart. He loved children and animals, and they were drawn to him. He was always willing to help out a friend, neighbor, or family member. He never focused on the negative, only on solving the problem.

Two of his favorite things were good coffee and good company. He loved visiting with family and friends. But his most favorite things were tending cattle, working on his beloved ranch alongside Skipper, and operating the bulldozer.

His idea of "relaxing" was sipping a hot cup of coffee on the porch, watching the sun go down over the pasture.

He was proud and respectful of the land. He enjoyed hunting and fishing the land with his brothers and brothers-in-law in his younger years.

He donated to Kellyville High School through hayrides and bonfires at the ranch. He eagerly looked forward to the Haddock family reunions whenever they were held.

Bill was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Jeanne Haddock; his parents, Raymond and Gladys Haddock; and his siblings, Perry Haddock, Floyd Haddock, Doris Haddock-Howard, Betty Haddock-Doll, Dan Haddock, Phillip Haddock, and Paul Haddock.

He is survived by his three loving children: Marcia Haddock Phipps and husband Pete, of Collinsville; Lorna Littlebear, of Glenpool; and William Joseph "Skipper" Haddock, of Kellyville.

He has four grandchildren: Karlin Littlebear, of Glenpool; Courtney Evans, of Bixby; Skeeter Haddock, of Bartlesville; and Spencer Haddock, of Salina. He also has five great-grandchildren.

Surviving brothers are Charles Haddock, Larry Haddock, Dennis Haddock, and Ronnie Haddock.

Surviving sisters are Janie Miller, Judy Sampson, Peggy West, and Rhonda Sagel.

Bill is also survived by other relatives and friends. He was deeply loved and will be greatly missed.
