We are saddened to learn of the passing of William "Bill" Jack Sibley over the weekend. Bill joined the THF board in 1992 and was an amazing advocate for Texas history and the arts. Bill was a world traveler, teacher, and accomplished author. His novels, plays, and frequent contributions to THF's Heritage Magazine are characterized by their keen ear for Texas vernacular and affectionate observation of its larger-than-life inhabitants.
In 2019, Bill established the William Jack Sibley Arts Endowment with THF to identify, support, preserve, promote, protect, nurture, and/or celebrate “Texas art."
Bill's great wit, storytelling, and institutional knowledge of THF will be greatly missed. Our condolences go out to Bill’s family and loved ones.
