      John David Skrivanek

      Mr. John David Skrivanek, 85, passed away in Plano, Texas on March 10, 2025. He was born, along with his twin sister, Deanne, in Taylor, Texas on July 19, 1939. They were the third generation of Skrivanek twins.

      John David graduated from A&M Consolidated High School, College Station, Texas, where he played clarinet in the band. He was a gifted draftsman, and as a teenager designed homes.

      Before pursuing graduate studies at the University of Virginia, John David earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Texas A&M University and a Master of Science degree from Iowa State University. He moved to Houston, Texas to live closer to family and began his professional career with Brown & Root, Inc. He retired, after many fulfilling years, which included travel and work in South America.

      John David moved to Plano in 2020 to live with his sister, Sharon and brother-in-law, John. During his final illness, he drew great strength from his Christian Faith. He was a lifetime member of the Houston Brethren Church and cherished his many friends there. He was a long-time supporter of the Houston Grand Opera and the Bromeliad Society.

      John David's life was defined by his pursuit of education, his commitment to family and friends, and his kindness and compassion towards others. He will be greatly missed but his spirit will live on in the hearts of those he touched. May he rest in peace, and may we carry his love in our hearts always.

      John David Skrivanek was preceded in death by his parents, Dr. John Marion and Lil Marek Skrivanek, and his nephew-in-law, Jerry Capps. He is survived by his twin sister, Deanne Butterfield of Austin, Texas; his sister, Sharon Skrivanek-Clark (husband, John Clark) of Plano, Texas; niece, Kelly Jones Capps of Austin, Texas, (daughters, Katy and Lane Capps); nephew, Chris Jones of Austin, Texas (wife, Heather Jones, children, Hays, Harper and Tatum Jones); nephew, Andrew Clark (wife, Kathleen Clark) of Rogers, Arkansas; and niece, Allison Clark of Plano, Texas.

      Funeral Services will be held at 2pm on Saturday, March 22, 2025, at Bryan College Station Brethren Church. Memorial contributions may be made to the Houston Brethren Church or HusCamp.org
