Celebration of life for Anthony Wayne “Tony” Bunch (Beasley)

April 24, 1958 – October 22, 2025

Anthony Wayne Bunch, lovingly known as Tony or Beasley, age 67, of Odessa, Texas, passed away on October 22, 2025. Tony was born on April 24, 1958, in Clinton, Tennessee, and grew up in Morehouse, Missouri.

Tony was retired and spent his days doing what he loved most — caring for his yard, working on cars, and spending time with his beloved family. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather who found joy and laughter in the simplest moments.

He was preceded in death by his grandmother Maggie Skinner; parents Gladys and Eugene Rogers; brother Rick Rogers; aunt Arlene McGill; son Tommy Joe Scott; grandson Karter Blankenship; and his mother- and father-in-law Judy and Jimmy Beauchamp.

Tony is survived by his devoted wife, Kay Scott; son Anthony Bunch II and wife Krista; daughters Rebecca Scott and Melody Blankenship and husband Doug. He was blessed with 16 grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren who adored their “Poppa.” He is also survived by his siblings Wes, Teresa, Paul, and Mary, along with many nieces, nephews, and friends who will miss him dearly.

Tony was known for his quick wit and sarcastic sense of humor. He loved to joke and argue with Kay — often with a grin that gave him away. He had a habit of sneaking snacks behind Kay’s back and would laugh when caught. He loved his loyal German Shepherd, Bruno, and enjoyed watching Gunsmoke, Walker, Texas Ranger, and Lost in Space. Tony was passionate about politics and could talk about it for hours. Above all, he was known for his ability to fix just about anything — if “Poppa can’t fix it, then no one can.”

A Celebration of Life will be held on Monday, November 3rd, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. at First Odessa Church, 709 N. Lee Ave., Odessa, Texas, officiated by James McCrary. Flowers may be sent to the church.

Tony will be remembered for his big heart, his humor, and his deep love for his family. His presence will be deeply missed but never forgotten.
