O. C. “Chet” Robbins Retires from the Texas Funeral Service Commission

      Mr. O.C. Chet Robbins, Executive Director of the Texas Funeral Service Commission, announced his retirement at the December Commission meeting. He will continue with the Commission until the end of February.

       In the Texas Funeral Service Commission’s 2nd Quarter Newsletter, Mr. Robbins expressed his sentiment when he said, “. . . I am resigning the end of February.  Nothing adverse has happened to cause my resignation.  It is my choice plain and simple.  It is time for a change and change will be good for the Commission.  With change will come new ideas and challenges. The foundation has been laid with the help of my staff.   I want to sincerely thank all of you that have supported me for the last 12 ½ years.  It is appropriate for me to make this announcement during the holiday season because I have so much to be thankful for.   And, I am thankful that I had the opportunity to serve as the Executive Director of the Texas Funeral Service Commission”.

     We want to thank Chet for his leadership over the last 12 plus years and wish him and his wife, Jean Kay the best for the future.
