Belton Maines

My best friend is gone. I am lost. You were my life.

I am shocked to hear about Belton's passing.
Belton was a good guy. I too would spend all nighters
at the Dobb House on Calder Ave. with Belton and the others.

I lose touch with Belton and Nanct about 1975.

Did even know Belton lived in Spring, we could been having lots of coffee.

I can't believe it! --- Belton was one of my first boyfriends and probably one of the nicest boys in high school. He gave me the biggest box of candy I ever received for my birthday sophomore year (put it in my locker as a surprise). I have such happy memories of him....and the picture is just as I remember him. Prayers to his family.

I lost touch with Belton years ago, but I was saddened to read about his passing. When we were children we lived across the street from each other. I lived on the corner of 7th and South and Belton lived with his mother and grandmother on South Street. He was two or three grades behind me and we were friends. When I think about Belton I remember he always wore a huge smile and he had a wonderful personality. I would like to offer my sympathy to his children. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Everyday I still can't believe it. Belton was a sweet, kind man and will surely be missed around Maverick. We loved to give each other a hard time and I will miss hearing the shuffling of your windbreaker coming down the hall. Rest in peace friend.

Countless late nights at the Dobbs House; hours on end cruising around in that '64 red Chevy Impala SS. The best of times old friend, wish we'd stayed closer over the years. You will be be missed, the memories will stay with us all forever.

Belton, you were truly one of a kind. I always saw you in an upbeat mood and hardly saw you frustrated. You were always in high spirits and that will be missed at Maverick. I enjoyed talkin with you always and really became fond of you checkin up on me with my school work. You always sought out for how everyone was doing and you will be missed! Rest in peace.

To Ryan & family,

Our deepest sympathy to you and your family. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

CANNOT BELIEVE THIS. BELTON AND I WORKED TOGETHER AT IDECO AND IRI IN HOUSTON. MY WIFE AND I ALSO WOULD MEET HIM AROUND HOUSTON GOING TO OIL INDUSTRY FUNCTIONS. AT ONE TIME I EVEN KNEW HIS KIDS WHEN THEY WERE YOUNGER. BELTON WAS WELL LIKED BY ALL WHO KNEW HIM

Madeline, Ryan and Nancy, we were so sorry to hear about Belton. He was one of a kind, he was one the nicest, kindest people we have ever known and so easy to talk to. We are just sorry that we didn't see more of him in past few years but our feelings haven't changed we still love him. Our prayers go out to you all, we love you all.

Ryan and Madeleine - My condolences to you. I met Belton at Lamar. We were fraternity brothers and friends. I will miss him.
Rest in peace, brother.

I worked with Belton at Dresser-Ideco in Beaumont, Texas years ago. He was always so nice and was a great person to be around. May God wrap his arms around Belton's family and friends giving them the comfort and strength they will need in the days ahead. Rest in Peace my friend.

We all have fond memories of Belton at the Phi Delt house forty years ago.
Rest in peace Brother,

I had the pleasure of dealing with Belton for almost 40 years. He was a good and honorable man.

All of us at WPI WELLKIN will truly miss him.

Our prayers are with Belton's friends and family.

Ryan and Madeleine - We are so sorry for you loss. I had the good fortune to meet your father at the beginning of my first year in college. Belton was in his last semester and, in addition to being a good friend, served as a wonderful example of how to live my life.

We grew up together and although we have not seen each other since college, he was a good friend and a good guy. So sorry for your loss.

Belton always wore a smile in high school, and every time I saw him in later years. A good friend to everyone. Sorry to hear of his passing.

Belton was a caring man. He would do anything for anyone and truly appreciated anything you did for him. There are so many things I will miss about him, but two things I will miss most is him coming in my office everyday to tell me good morning and being his smoking buddy. I will miss you. You will forever hold a place in my heart. Rest in peace Belton!

My prayers are with all of Belton's family, and friends. He was my friend all throughout high school. After that, every time that we would encounter each other, he always greeted me with a huge smile, hug, and laughter. The world has lost a really nice man. Prayers are with you all.

I was fortunate to meet Belton while on business with my colleague Lloyd Savoy of King Oil Tools. Belton was warm and friendly to me, making me feel welcomed at their offices.

My thoughts and prayers are extended to his family.

So sorry for your loss. I am an old high school friend and so many of the class of 67 will miss him.

Your were the sweetest and niceist guy,

Belton was a 'good guy'. I knew him from high school then I saw him a few years ago, he was the still the same good guy!!!

Great guy He' be missed.

Belton was a great person and friend. I enjoyed working with him. He was always there if you needed a shoulder or a helping hand. I am sad to hear he passed away.

RIP Belton. It won't be the same without you. You were a great friend and always a pleasure to talk to. I'll miss seeing you with Popeyes everyday, hearing you complain about eating Taco Bell and you hoovering around the stove for first dips on lunch! You are truly missed!

Remembering Belton as a super nice classmate, friend and gentleman. I am thinking you were blessed to call him daddy.

Sorry to hear of your loss. I remember Belton in high school and he was a Phi Delta Theta with my brother, Bob. Prayers your way.

Godspeed my old friend! You left this earth too soon! Condolences to your family.
