In Loving Memory of Elzie D. Odom, Jr.
Elzie D. Odom, Jr., was born in Orange, Texas, and dedicated his life to faith, family, and service. A graduate of the University of Santa Clara and a Benjamin E. Mays Scholar, Brite Divinity School at Texas Christian University, he served in pastoral ministry in the United Methodist Church for over 25 years. He also enjoyed a successful career as a marketing manager with IBM for more than 25 years.
A devoted father of three and grandfather of four, Elzie “B-Pops” cherished the time he spent with his family. He was a member of Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc., and an enthusiastic fan of the Dallas Cowboys and Dallas Wings. His commitment to ministry, professional accomplishments, and love for his family leave a lasting legacy.
Elzie will be remembered with love and gratitude by all who knew him. His life of service, dedication, and compassion will continue to inspire those whose lives he touched.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in his honor to the Leukemia Research Foundation.
