Obituary

Virginia Dell Bailey was born in Sherman, Texas on November 1, 1939, to Mary (Punky) Dale Bailey and James (Papa) Allen Bailey. Her twin sister, Jimmie Carlton, was born in Sherman, Texas. Her other two siblings were born in Pampa, TX, Kay McCormick and Claude Allen Bailey, all of them were raised in Pampa, Texas. She passed on from this earth to be with her Lord and Savior on January 15, 2024, at the age of 84.

Virginia grew up and attended Pampa High School and eventually graduated. She attended a local church in Pampa, TX where she came to know the Lord. She was married and has three children, Dee Wayne Bond, Samuel Allen Bond, and Tresia Michelle Bond, all currently residing in Hempstead and Cypress, TX.

Virginia began her work life as a bookkeeper for a small construction company in Pampa while keeping up with her children. She was devoted to her family and her work. She and her husband moved to Houston in 1962 and started a construction company that became a successful enterprise. Virginia and Tresia became interested in showing horses. They became quite proficient at Western Pleasure and Hunter Jumper, winning many awards. The stable and barns, where they kept their horses, was expanded and in 1979 she started Windy Acres as an equestrian center. This business grew and she maintained it for many years before eventually selling it.

Virginia moved to the hill country of Texas with her husband in 2004 settling on a home `location in Canyon Lake, TX. She lived there for 20 years before her health began to decline. While in Canyon Lake she was active with her church and community. She sang in the church choir and loved the experience of serving the Lord. She learned to line dance and loved playing card games. Virginia moved to Hempstead in 2022 where she resided on her son's property until her death.

Ginger was a woman of many passions and talents. She was an avid scuba diver, loved to explore the ocean's depths, and enjoyed traveling to explore new places. She also enjoyed bedazzling her clothes, exercising, walking, and line dancing.

Her faith enriched Ginger's life, and she worshiped at Waller Baptist Church in Waller, TX. Her strong connection to her faith played an important role in her life.
