Published by Legacy Remembers on Dec. 29, 2023.

Douglas Aaron Wells, Sr. left this earth on Friday, December 15, 2023. Doug "Tex" Wells was born to Rev. Rodney Wells and Lounita Elaine Wells (Graham) in St. Louis, MO on November 14th, 1974. Tex spent most of his adolescence in New Braunfels, TX before moving to Allentown, PA at the age of 22. He worked at Rent-A-Center in Texas, then as a salesman and finance manager at various car dealerships throughout the Lehigh Valley. He later opened his food truck, Tex's Smokin' Barbecue, which became a staple of good eats in Orefield, PA. After closing his food truck, he retired to his beloved state of Texas for the remainder of his life. He is survived by his son, Douglas Aaron Wells Jr., daughter in law, Lauren, grandson Sawyer, his parents Rodney and Lounita Elaine Wells, as well as his two brothers Michael and Joshua and their families.

He was a kind and wonderful man. I am proud to have called him a friend at one point in my life. Sad to hear of his passing.

We shared many sunsets together and you would have been amazed with tonight's.
I have so many wonderful memories with you. We shared 26 years together and I'm sad there won't be more. We were ALWAYS "there for each other".
Missing you more than anyone could realize or understand.
You will live on in my heart.
I love you.
