Alva Paschal “Al” Maag was born on February 24, 1946. He was the firstborn child to parents Jimmy Jeff Maag and Rudell Goslier Maag. Al was a man of many interests and talents. He grew up and attended school in Burkburnett where he played football and found an interest in rodeo. His specific interest was tie-down roping and steer wrestling.
Al was also a veteran of the U.S. Army and served in Vietnam. After his discharge from the military, he began his business of framing new homes and buildings. He then transitioned into constructing new homes, and he was awarded the Outstanding Home Builder in Wichita Falls in 1984.
He loved rodeo and bass fishing and excelled at both winning many buckles, saddles, and even a trailer! He loved to compete and was in the top group of fisherman in every club. He was also the president of the Breckenridge Bass Club and brought in many new members and friends.
Al was preceded in death by his parents, Jimmy and Rudell.
