Richard Howard Ivy, 74, of Tyler, Texas, was fatally shot on the afternoon of April 9, 2016. Tyler police responded to a family disturbance at his home and found him dead of a gunshot wound. His wife, Car Ivy, 71, was taken into custody for questioning, later arrested and charged with murder, and booked into the Smith County jail on $250,000 bond.

Records state an argument occurred between the couple before the shooting. At the time she remained in jail awaiting trial and jail records did not list an attorney for her. Funeral services for Richard Ivy were held April 14, 2016, at Lloyd James Funeral Home and he was entombed in Cathedral in the Pines.

Anyone who knew Richard Ivy or who has information about the events at the couple’s home on April 9, 2016, is asked to come forward.
