He was the beloved husband of almost 60 years to the late Julia Swenson Pence. Born and raised in Texas, Mr. Pence worked until his retirement for Gulf/Chevron Oil Co.

Laura Pence Hogue and Charlie, and Jay and Julie Pence. His grandchildren, Stephen, Amanda and Katie Hogue and Emily Hogue Holladay, and Tyler and Kevin Pence, and Dr. Leslie Pence Samardzija will dearly miss him.
