James Donald "Don" Paschal
Mar 20, 1932 - Nov 4, 2025

Corsicana - James Donald "Don" Paschal passed away peacefully on November 4, 2025 in his hometown of Kerens, Texas, surrounded by family and friends. Born on the first day of spring, March 20, 1932, to J.A. and Lillian Paschal, Don brought warmth and renewal wherever he went. He was preceded in death by his parents and his beloved sister, Betty Ullman. Don is survived by his devoted wife of 70 years, Jean Ann Paschal of Kerens; sons Mark Paschal and wife Andrea of Dallas, John Paschal of Dallas, and David Paschal of Kerens; and cherished nieces Donna Ellis and husband Richard of Plano and Diane Graham of College Station. He also leaves behind a number of grandnieces and nephews, cousins, and lifelong friends who will continue to honor his memory. A man of tireless energy and many talents, Don was a funeral director for more than 50 years, many of those years as owner of Paschal Funeral Homes in Kerens and Malakoff. He retired in 2000 but continued to hold an active funeral director's license until last year, making him one of the oldest active licensees in the state of Texas. Long before emergency services were centralized, Don was affectionately known as "Kerens' 911" - always the first to respond in times of need and comfort. Don was a faithful member of First Baptist Church of Kerens throughout his life and served as a deacon for over 60 years, exemplifying his steadfast faith and devotion to his church family. He also co-owned and operated Maywood Manor Nursing Home, provided the first mini-warehouses in Kerens, and managed his family farm and cattle operation, where he found his greatest joy. Don loved his hometown deeply and gave himself to its care and growth. He served as Mayor of Kerens, on the Kerens School Board, with the Kerens Cemetery Association, in the Kiwanis Club, and on several Navarro County boards. He was also instrumental in establishing the Kerens Library, a reflection of his belief in community and lifelong learning.  A proud member of the Texas National Guard, Don lived a life of quiet service, integrity, and deep faith. Those who knew Don will never forget his welcoming spirit - he greeted everyone who entered his home or crossed his path with a warm smile, a ready handshake, and often, a story. He had a way of making people feel seen, valued, and missed when they left.  He was known for humming tunes throughout the day, a gentle melody that became part of the soundtrack of his life—so constant that friends often said, "You can hear Don coming before you see him." His love of nature was amazing; his knowledge of trees, flowers, and the changing seasons was endless, and he delighted in sharing that wisdom with others. To many, Don was a living historian—a "wealth of knowledge" about Kerens, Navarro County, and the generations who have called it home.  Don will be remembered for his eternal positivity, sense of humor, humility, and boundless love for family and community. He leaves behind a legacy not just of service, but of warmth, joy, and grace. Visitation will be 5 to 7 pm Wednesday at Paschal Funeral Home. Funeral services will be 10 am Thursday at First Baptist Church, Kerens, with Reverend Danny Sandifer and Reverend Olin Boles officiating. Burial will follow at Kerens City Cemetery. Pallbearers are A.L. Atkeisson, Norton Connor, Larry Christie, Bobby Bain, Bryan Ainsworth, Phil Posey, Benny Cherry, and Dolwin Smallwood. Honorary pallbearers are deacons of the Frist Baptist Church. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to First Baptist Church of Kerens and the Kerens City Cemetery Association. "Well done, good and faithful servant." - Matthew 25:21

John William "Bill" O'Neal
Apr 8, 1942 - Nov 3, 2025

Corsicana - John William "Bill" O'Neal wasn't born on April 8, 1942. Rather, he galloped into existence in Corsicana, Texas riding a bucking horse on that date! When he was a little boy, he spent treasured hours at the Ideal, Palace and Grand Theatres in Corsicana riding the range with Gene Autry and Roy Rogers. His parents, Mr. William Causby "Bud" and Mrs. Jessie Lucille O'Neal, taught him to love God, and Bill was a devoted Christian till he rode off into the sunset on November 3, 2025. Bill started writing stories when he was just a young cowpoke, and when he grew up, he spent many delightful days writing about the American West. His four daughters, Lynn, Shellie, Berri and Causby, rode shotgun with him on his adventurous research trips, and Bill's devotion to his girls knew no bounds. Ever interested in his daughters' lives and dreams, he faithfully attended their ballgames, concerts, and play performances. He continued this tradition with his grandchildren. Bill began his teaching career as a high school football coach in Anna, Waskom, and Lampasas, and always willing to wear multiple hats, he was also called upon to serve as principal and Spanish teacher! He began teaching at Panola College in 1970, and he spent four decades there giving lectures, often appearing in costume. On any given day, he could be seen strolling across campus as a Revolutionary War officer, a frontiersman, or a medieval lord. Mr. O'Neal loved giving talks about history, and though he made appearances on TBS, The History Channel, The Learning Channel, CMT, and A & E, no engagement and no town was too small! He loved telling everyone about history, and his motto was, "You don't know who you are till you know who you were!" Bill was a lifelong Baptist, and he served as department coordinator and Sunday School teacher for decades at Central Baptist Church in Carthage, Texas. Bill lassoed a number of awards during his time riding the range. He served two terms as State Historian of Texas (his wife Karon proudly bore the title "Chief of Staff" for that office, riding with him across Texas to passels of appearances); he received the A C Greene Literary Award in 2015; the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Wild West History Association; True West Magazine's Best Living Non-Fiction Writer for 2007; the NOLA Book of the Year for his book, The Johnson County War; and an Honorary Doctor of Letters from his beloved alma mater, East Texas A&M University. Bill was a prolific writer, authoring 59 books. Bill leaves behind devoted family in this earthly corral: survivors are his daughter, Lynn O'Neal Martinez and son-in-law Rudy Martinez of Corpus Christi, Texas; daughter Shellie O'Neal of Corsicana, Texas; daughter Berri O'Neal Gormley and son-in-law Drew Gormley of Colleyville, Texas; daughter Causby O'Neal Henderson and son-in-law Dusty Henderson of Van Alstyne, Texas; sister Judy O'Neal Smith of Lampasas, Texas; and brother Mike O'Neal and sister-in-law Jerilynn O'Neal of Carrollton, Texas. His grandchildren are Chloe and Camille Martinez, Jessie Martinez, Bailey and Casey Leath, Kendall Henderson, Addie Gormley, Nolan Gormley, and Reagan Gormley. He also leaves behind beloved nieces and nephews: Chris Smith, Molly Johnson, Ross O'Neal, Ryan O'Neal, Shelley Davis James, Brent Davis, Kyle Ashby, and Katy Ashby. The final round-up for Bill will be: Visitation at Jimerson-Lipsey Funeral Home, Carthage on Thursday, November 6 from 5-8 pm, and funeral on Friday, November 7 at 11 am at Central Baptist Church in Carthage, Texas. The graveside service will be held at Pattison Cemetery in Emhouse, Texas on Friday, November 7 at 4:00 pm. Cowhands (pallbearers) are Dusty Henderson, Drew Gormley, Rudy Martinez, Don Clinton, Greg Powell, Casey Leath, Darren Wilkerson, and Nolan Gormley. Trail bosses (Honorary pallbearers) are Larry McNeill and Mike O'Neal. Officiating the funeral will be Dr. Charles Dodson, longtime friend and pastor of the O'Neal family. The family requests that any memorial donations be given to Central Baptist Church of Carthage, Texas. We wish you happy trails, Bill, and we thank you for blazing a clear and picturesque trail so we could ride, romp, and explore with you!

Corsicana - To his extensive family, who loved him so dearly, Harold was everyone's Big Daddy. With broken hearts, we share that Big Daddy 'took his trip on the good ole gospel ship and bid this world goodbye' on January 16, 2026, with the love of his life, Nancy, by his side. He was born in Corsicana to Lorene and James Coffey on March 13, 1936, and left a legacy of wild-haired stories of his childhood and teenage years in that town. The recalling of his youthful shenanigans provided entertainment at the annual Corsicana High School reunion, class of '54, and brought belly laughs from his awe-struck grandkids as he retold those same stories at the dinner table, as sometimes needed, in censored form! After a year of scholarship football at the University of North Texas, a knee injury changed his intended path, and he began an almost 70 years run of storied jobs. Harold was the definition of hard work and sacrifice and never shied away from a job that would provide for his family: pool hall hustler, K. Wolens salesman and manager, Bethlehem Steel worker, National Guard cook, funeral home embalmer, clothing buyer, flea market store owner, semi-truck driver, food truck owner and more. Harold and Nancy met in 1981 on a blind date in Dallas, set up by a mutual friend, and were smitten with each other from the day they met until he drew his last breath. Theirs was a once-in-a-lifetime love that was visible and admired by many. He was her pillar of strength, and Nancy was his forever loyal and soft-landing spot. We are grateful for His promise of eternal life, as we trust they will someday be reunited. Harold purchased a home with some rural acreage for he and Nancy in Van, Texas, in 1997, which became known lovingly by the family as "the farm." The environment they created in this special place provided years of respite and immense joy for their growing, blended family. He and Nancy extended a welcome mat for anyone who wanted to come and temporarily forget their struggles and complexities in life to put up their feet at the farm. Fond memories include his expansive garden, his incredible smoked meat and home-cooked meals, teaching grandkids how to catch their first fish in his stock pond, long golf cart drives down the old country road, fireworks, family gatherings, his many beloved farm pets and animals, pool time, poker games, darts and shotgun shooting, and smoking, drinking and telling long tales on the back porch. Although hard work was his core, he also knew how to fully enjoy life and taught others to embrace the same. Harold will be remembered for so many wonderful attributes, including his work ethic, his kind heart, his big laugh and the unconditional love he extended to anyone lucky enough to know him. Rest in peace, Big Daddy, until we see you again. Harold was predeceased by his parents, James and Lorene Coffey; brother, James Coffey; son, Jerry Coffey; step-son, Sean Ryan; one grandson and one great granddaughter. He is survived by his wife, Nancy Price Coffey; daughter, Sherrie Roberts; sons DeWitt and Patrick Coffey; step-son, Tim Ryan; step-daughters Kim O'Con and Katy Bernshausen; 19 grandchildren, 24 great grandchildren and 2 great-great grandchildren. A celebration of life service will be held on February 21, 2026 @ 2pm. Union Chapel Church, 20117 Hwy 110, Van, TX, 75790. For anyone sending flowers, they can only be received at the chapel 12p-5p Fri, 2/20, and 9a-noon, 2/21. Small town, small church!

Samuel Martin Clarke, known affectionately as Sam to his friends and family, left this world on January 21, 2026, at the age of 84, in the same town where he first drew breath, Corsicana, Texas. Born on May 22, 1941, to the late Robert and Ethelene Clarke, Sam was a beacon of light in the lives of everyone who knew him. His infectious smile and warm presence will be profoundly missed by all. A proud Corsicanan by birth, Sam carried the values of his community throughout his life. He attended Corsicana High School, where he graduated in 1959 with a group of lifelong friends. His thirst for knowledge and exemplary work ethic led him to the University of Texas at Arlington, where he was part of the inaugural graduating class in 1967.He later earned a MBA, his academic achievements set the stage for a distinguished career as a forensic accountant and comptroller, where he was known for his sharp mind and integrity. Sam's dedication to his country was evident through his service in the U.S. Marine Corps from 1959 to 1964, a period that shaped his character and instilled in him a sense of discipline and honor that he carried throughout his life. He was a Christian who lived by his faith, and his actions reflected the love and grace he found in his beliefs. Beyond his professional and military service, Sam was a man of many passions. He relished the simple pleasure of smoking his pipe while recounting stories of past adventures. Football season was a special time for Sam, who never missed a Corsicana Tigers or Dallas Cowboys game, his cheers echoing the passion he had for the sport. His commitment to youth was evident in his roles as a little league coach and scout master, where he mentored many young individuals, shaping their characters and instilling in them values that they would carry into adulthood. As a proud member of the Texas Tech Dad's Association, he supported and encouraged education, and his legacy of learning continues through his family. Sam's loving wife, Beverly Clarke, stood by his side in every chapter of their lives together. He was a guiding light to his children, Angelia Holley (Dave), Randall Clarke (Kathryn), and Robert Clarke, and a playful and wise grandfather to Colin Ives (Saige), Brian Ives (Cecelia), Catherine Huntington (Connor), Annabella Clarke, Samuel Clarke, and Alexandra Clarke. Sam was predeceased by his sister, Wanda Glazener. His memory will live on in the hearts of his family and friends. Described as loving, intelligent, and friendly, Sam Clarke's legacy is one of love, laughter, and the pursuit of excellence. His life was a testament to the power of kindness and the enduring strength of family bonds. As we bid farewell to Sam, we celebrate the remarkable life he led and the countless lives he touched with his generosity and spirit. Corley Funeral Home

Dixie Lea Corrington, a beacon of love and faith, passed away peacefully on January 15, 2026, in Corsicana, Texas. Born on December 24, 1938, in Quimby, Iowa, to William and Harriett McCaw, Dixie's life was a testament to the power of kindness and community. Dixie's early years in Quimby set the foundation for a life filled with love and service. She grew up alongside her siblings Cindy, Jerry, and Jane, and their bonds remained a source of strength throughout her life. After marrying her beloved husband, Marvin Corrington, who preceded her in death, the couple was blessed with a loving family that would become Dixie's greatest joy. As a mother to Matthew (and his wife Molly), Vance, and Michael, Dixie instilled values of compassion and faith. Her legacy continued to flourish through her grandchildren, Collin (Amelia), Amy (Edward), Michelle (Brian), Cody, Rachel, Elizabeth, Hannah (Bryce), Ambree (Ryan), Hunter, Wyatt, and Ava, as well as numerous great-grandchildren. Each of them carried a piece of Dixie's heart and her teachings of love and kindness. Dixie's career was marked by over 25 years of dedicated service as a manager at J.C. Penney's, followed by a decade at Russell Stover. Her natural leadership and ability to connect with people made her well-respected in the workplace. Her Christian faith was the cornerstone of her life, guiding her through every challenge and triumph. As an avid crocheter, Dixie's hands were rarely still as she crafted warmth and beauty for those she loved. Her grandchildren were the light of her life, and she often said they kept her going. Dixie's feisty spirit and people-oriented nature meant she never met a stranger, and her ability to strike up a conversation with anyone was legendary. A true Dallas Cowboys fan, she shared her passion for the game with friends and family alike. Dixie's kind and loving nature, coupled with an unwavering faith, made her a cherished figure in her community. Her presence was a comfort and a joy to all who knew her, and her ability to love unconditionally will be deeply missed. She leaves behind a legacy of love and kindness that will continue to inspire those who knew her. Dixie's memory will be treasured by her sister Cindy McCaw, her faithful dog Sophie, and her vast extended family of nieces, nephews, and friends who were touched by her generous spirit. Dixie Lea Corrington's life was a beautiful tapestry woven with threads of love, faith, and genuine kindness. As we bid farewell to this remarkable woman, we celebrate the indelible mark she left on the hearts of all who had the privilege of knowing her. Her spirit will continue to guide us, reminding us that the warmth of love never fades. There will be a memorial service for Ms. Dixie Corrington in Bemidji, Minnesota in the Spring. Exact date and time will be announced at a later date. Corley Funeral Home

Cecil Daniel "Donnie" Gillen
Apr 7, 1936 - Jan 25, 2026

Cecil "Donnie" Gillen went to be with the Lord on Sunday, January 25, 2026, at the age of 89. He was born on April 7, 1936, to Dick and Hazel Gillen in Blooming Grove, Texas. Donnie attended school in Blooming Grove and graduated with the Class of 1954. Growing up in a large family, Donnie understood the meaning and value of hard work. He began his career working alongside his father at Austin Paving Company, during his high school years with his uncle, Mack Stevenson at his service station, later joining Nabors Trailer Company, and eventually owning and operating Gillen's Exxon until his retirement in 1999. On March 15, 1958, Donnie married his high school sweetheart, Peggy Flovin, and together they shared over 67 wonderful years of marriage. They welcomed a daughter and later a granddaughter, who were the light of his life. Known affectionately as "Grandad," Donnie spent countless hours at his Exxon station teaching “his girls” life lessons and sharing his wisdom. Donnie and Peggy loved to travel, often setting out on spontaneous road trips just to see where the road would lead. They also enjoyed family trips to the National Finals Rodeo and team roping events, as long as they were surrounded by loved ones. Donnie’s passion for rodeo began as a bull rider and continued as a calf roper before transitioning to team roping. He cherished taking his daughter, Vicki, to high school rodeos and later supporting his granddaughter, Morgan, at livestock shows and softball games - sometimes both on the same day. When not spending time with family, Donnie could be found under a trailer wiring the lights, as he was known as the "best trailer light wiring guy around". Donnie volunteered at the Navarro County Youth Expo, with the Lamb Show. During Morgan’s high school years, he took pride in preparing the CISD softball fields for games, ensuring they were always in the best condition possible for his "softball girls." Donnie was a faithful member of First Baptist Church, Corsicana, where he attended the Clark Sunday School Class. In his later years, he enjoyed buying antiques and helping Peggy with her antique business, as well as spending time with friends at their favorite Friday night auction. Donnie was preceded in death by his parents; siblings Jerry Gillen, Johnny Gillen, Betty Campbell, Kathy Campbell, and Megan Gillen; and his in-laws, Newt and Wilma Flovin. He is survived by his loving wife, Peggy of Corsicana; daughter Vicki and husband Randall Arnett of Corsicana; granddaughter Morgan and husband Judson Limmer of Carmine; siblings Lelia and husband James Brown of Mesquite, Mike Gillen of Pattonville, Pam and husband Cliff Giese of La Grange, and Larry and wife Terri Gillen of Blooming Grove; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, and extended family. Pallbearers will be nephews Jerry Brown, Hank Campbell, Matthew Giese, Josh Gillen, Randy Gillen, and Rodney Gillen. Honorary pallbearers will be long time friends, Joe Haden, Buck Holditch, Victor Husband, Eddie Mahone, and Bobby Reagan. The family extends heartfelt thanks to the second-floor staff of Navarro Regional Hospital for their wonderful care. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to First Baptist Church, Corsicana; Navarro County Youth Expo; or the charity of one's choice in Donnie's name. Griffin-Roughton Funeral Home

Jerry Wayne Robinson, a devoted Christian who loved & served his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, a cherished husband, family man, and friend, passed away peacefully on December 26, 2025, in his hometown of Corsicana, TX, where he was also born on May 25, 1940. Jerry, known for his boundless kindness and handyman skills, lived a full life marked by love, service, and music. Jerry's journey began as the son of Loyd and Gladys (Christie) Robinson, and he grew up alongside his brothers Ray and Steve, who preceded him in death, as did his beloved daughter, Lori Michelle Robinson. His life was a testament to enduring love, as he shared 65 beautiful years with his wife, Glenda Franks. Together, they built a life filled with joy, music, and an extended family of nieces, nephews, and relatives who will fondly remember his generous spirit. Professionally, Jerry dedicated many years to Owens Corning as an Industrial Maintenance Technician, a role that showcased his remarkable ability to fix and build with precision and care. His commitment to his community shone brightly in his retirement when he became a familiar face to many local children, driving a school bus for CISD for 12 years. Jerry's presence was a comforting constant on daily routes and an enthusiastic supporter at countless field trips and sporting events. Beyond his work, Jerry was a man of many passions. His cordial and compassionate nature made him a beloved figure in his community. He was generous to a fault, always willing to lend a hand or share his expertise. His small farm was a source of pride and joy, a place where he could put his handy skills to good use. Jerry was also an accomplished guitar player, and together with Glenda on the mandolin, they filled the air with the sweet sounds of bluegrass as part of a band that brought happiness to many. Jerry loved Glenda more than anything in the world, and their partnership was a beautiful melody that resonated throughout their lives. His legacy is one of love, kindness, and the ability to create and fix anything he set his mind to. Those who knew Jerry will remember him as a man who could always be counted on, a true friend, and a loving family man. As we bid farewell to Jerry Wayne Robinson, we celebrate a life well-lived and a man well-loved. His memory will continue to inspire and comfort all who were fortunate enough to know him. Jerry's life was a beautiful song, composed of notes of love, service, and joy, and though he has left us, his melody will echo in our hearts forever. Jerry chose to be cremated. A memorial service will be planned at a later date. Corley Funeral Home has been entrusted with the services.

Vicky's grandchildren, Tinsley, Colter, and Cooper Barnes also survive her and will continue to be inspired by the values she instilled in them. Not to be forgotten, her cherished furry babies, Rusty and Sasha, who brought her endless joy and companionship. Vicky was known among family and friends for her independence, fiery spirit, and zest for life. Her love for the Lord was profound, and it informed her compassionate dealings with all those she met. Vicky's love for adventure could be seen in her passion for water sports; she relished the thrill of jet skiing, swimming, and gracefully gliding on water skis. Her youthful spirit found joy in attending concerts, creating memories that resonated through her stories and laughter. To say Vicky was a Dallas Cowboys fan would be an understatement; she rode the highs and lows with her beloved team with unwavering loyalty and optimism. Generations of family members and friends benefitted from her remarkable culinary skills, with her coconut cream pies becoming the centerpiece of many gatherings, embedding sweet flavors into cherished family traditions. Vicky fought through life's challenges with determination, often showing her endearing defiant streak that those close to her both admired and fondly teased her about. She never wavered in her commitment to family, forging strong bonds that extended beyond kinship to include a wide circle of friends who felt the embrace of her generous spirit. As we say goodbye to Victorene "Vicky" Barnes, we celebrate the brilliant tapestry of her life - woven with love, tenacity, and an enduring will. Her story does not end here, for she lives on not only in memory but in the lessons, she imparted and the lives she so deeply touched. Vicky's unquenchable spirit will continue to inspire those she has left behind to live each day with courage, faith, and an unwavering pursuit of joy. Her legacy will forever radiate in the hearts of those who had the privilege to know and love her. There will be a Graveside Service on Saturday, 12/6/2025 at 2:00 PM at Resthaven Cemetery in Corsicana. Services Entrusted to Corley Funeral Home, Corsicana, Texas.

Beverly Kay Prewitt Plauché met her Savior face-to-face and entered into her eternal home with the Lord, whom she loved with her whole heart on November 27, 2025. Her faith was not simply something she spoke about - it radiated through every part of her life. Beverly had an unshakable passion for sharing the countless miracles God performed in her life and often reminded others that true faith is not just what you know in your head, but what you hold dearly in your heart. To know Beverly was to encounter someone who truly listened for the Lord’s voice and encouraged everyone she met to do the same. If she could speak to you now, she would lovingly remind you to search your heart, seek your relationship with the Lord, and open your ears to what He is trying to tell you. Her greatest desire was for others to experience the same life-changing peace she found in Christ. Left to carry her legacy of faith are her loving children - Bradley James Plauché and wife Sarah, Krista McNew, and Cheri and husband John Moran - who find great joy in continuing to share their mother’s passion for the Lord with others.

Billie Jewel Hayes, lovingly known throughout her life as “Shug,” “Grandmaw,” and to her great-grandchildren, “Grandmaw Shug,” passed away peacefully on February 17, 2026, at the remarkable age of 100. She was a strong, fiercely independent Christian woman whose love for her family was unconditional and unwavering. Born on December 3, 1925, in Emhouse, Texas, to Clayburn and Willie Jones. Billie was the youngest of five children — Floyd, Louise, Gracie, and Faye. Raised on a farm by a hardworking sharecropper father, she grew up understanding perseverance, discipline, and faith. She often shared stories of picking cotton and the hardships of farm life, but those early experiences shaped the steadfast values she carried throughout her life: hard work, gratitude, frugality, and determination. From childhood on, Billie adored animals. Throughout her life, there was always at least one cat and one dog in her home — they were simply part of the family. Billie graduated from Ennis High School and on December 28, 1946, married the love of her life, Ralph Hayes. Together they built a beautiful life and raised three children: Linda, Mike, and Chris. Their marriage was filled with devotion, partnership, and cherished traditions. Though primarily a homemaker — a role she embraced with pride — Billie also worked at Sears and Roebuck in the catalog department and later as a cosmetician with Merle Norman Cosmetics for sixteen years before retiring in 1991. She had a keen eye for style and design, always keeping up with the latest trends. Antiquing at flea markets and garage sales was a favorite pastime, and finding a bargain brought her great satisfaction. Home was her sanctuary. She loved planting flowers, tending the yard, sewing, quilting, painting, and canning vegetables from the garden. Fridays were for cleaning the house, washing the car, and mowing the yard so the weekend could be enjoyed freely. Multitasking was not something she learned — it was simply who she was. Billie loved classic films such as Gone with the Wind, westerns like Gunsmoke, Bonanza, and The Big Valley, and later enjoyed Hallmark Channel favorites. Her musical tastes spanned from The Andrews Sisters and Nat King Cole to John Denver, Linda Ronstadt, and Willie Nelson. Some of the sweetest memories include weekend drives through the Texas countryside with Ralph, windows down and cool breeze flowing, stopping in small towns for a Dr Pepper and a collection of favorite snacks — chips, pork rinds, fresh-cut cheese, peanuts, crackers, and cookies. Those simple traditions became treasured family moments. Her faith was a cornerstone of her life. A devoted Baptist, Billie faithfully attended church and lived out her beliefs daily. She especially loved Thanksgiving and Christmas — not just for the decorations and food, but for the joy of family gathered together. A playful competition between Billie and Ralph over who made the best Thanksgiving dressing was always part of the celebration. When Ralph’s health declined, Billie stepped into the role of caregiver with strength and grace — becoming the driver, cook, and constant support. After his passing in 2016, she continued living independently through snowstorms, power outages, and the COVID pandemic. In 2020, during a roof replacement, she was advised to stay inside for safety. Instead, she visited with the workers and made sandwiches for them. The foreman sent a message that read, “Your mom is so nice and she fixed the best sandwiches for us while we were working.” That was Billie — independent, warm, and always hospitable. In 2021, at 95 years old, she faced a serious medical decision. Given the option of hospice or surgery, she firmly declared, “Well, I am not going out like this. I want the surgery.” After a three-and-a-half-hour procedure, her doctor marveled that she came through with the vitals of a 50-year-old. Her strength and spirit amazed everyone. She even drove her Chevy Tahoe until she was 92. Billie was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Ralph Hayes. She is survived by her daughter, Linda Hughes; her sons, Mike Hayes and his wife Penny, and Chris Hayes and his partner, Tom. She leaves behind four grandchildren: Jack Hughes (Cami), John Hughes (Hollye), Somer Hayes (Ryan), and Meagan Kamerbeek (Jason). Her legacy continues through nine great-grandchildren: Alex Hughes, Wesey Hughes, Eli Hughes, Miles Hayes, Sam Hayes, Ian Hughes, Will Kamerbeek, Merritt Hayes, and Ellis Kamerbeek. Billie Jewel Hayes lived a century marked by resilience, independence, faith, and deep love. She appreciated both the simple and finer things in life, balanced her checkbook with precision, dressed with flair, and never lost her strong will or gracious heart. She will be remembered as a woman who stood firm in her beliefs, loved her family fiercely, and lived life fully — always on her own terms. Her legacy lives on in every flower planted, every quilt stitched, every family gathering, and every drive through the Texas countryside with the windows down.

Kimberly Gene Terrell, born on January 27, 1965, peacefully passed away on December 16, 2025, surrounded by her loved ones. She was a remarkable individual whose courageous spirit and unwavering determination left a lasting impact on all who knew her. Kim was born in Navarro County and spent her formative years attending Mildred schools. She lived in Auburn, Illinois and various other places during her youth. At the tender age of 18, Kim was diagnosed with liver disease, a condition that would shape her life in profound ways. Throughout her adult years, she faced various medical traumas related to her illness and defied the odds time and time again, confounding medical professionals with her resilience. Despite the challenges she faced, Kim pursued a career in education and taught elementary school while raising four remarkable children. Her relentless drive to advocate for herself led to the diagnosis of a rare genetic disease called Alpha 1, a feat that would later inspire her to educate, speak, and support others grappling with similar conditions. In addition to spending time with her family, Kim loved to travel, go on cruises, and was a lifelong learner. In support of her military son, she joined the Texas Army Moms and found a network of support and a loving group of dear friends. Kim met and married the love of her life, Tom Terrell, with whom she actively served in various churches in Navarro County. Together, they shared a deep commitment to their faith and community, embodying the values of compassion and kindness to others. For many years, Kim bravely awaited a new liver, demonstrating remarkable patience and strength in the face of adversity. Sadly, she eventually succumbed to liver failure at the age of 60. Despite her physical departure, Kim's legacy of advocacy for Jesus, Alpha 1, and organ donation will endure through the countless lives she touched. Kim is survived by her devoted husband, Tom Terrell, her cherished children Evan, Elissa, and Elana Chu, daughter-in-law Hannah Chu, and her parents, Max and Robbie Rash, brother Todd Rash and sister-in- law Allison, sister Tara Ayers and husband Byron, along with numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and extended family members.

Sandra K. Wolver, 78, of Corsicana passed away on December 8, 2025, with her family by her side. She was born February 15, 1947, in Rockford, Illinois to Sam Giovingo and Dorothy Stores. For more than 30 years, Sandy lived the beautiful and sometimes challenging life of a pastor's wife. She carried that role with grace, humility, and a deep love for people. Ministry wasn't something she did on Sundays - it was the way she lived every day. Wherever she went, Sandy served. She encouraged. She prayed. She taught. She listened. She showed Christ's love in small, faithful ways that made a big difference. Sandy also worked at Walmart for 23 years, where she also would retire. But even there, ministry never stopped. She turned her workplace into a place of kindness and connection. Coworkers became friends, and customers became people she cared for. She lived out her faith in the aisles and break rooms just as much as she did in the church. Also, she was awarded by the Governor of Iowa the congressional bravery award at the age of 16 years old for saving her sister in a house fire. More than anything, Sandy loved her family. She cherished being a wife, a mom, a daughter, a grandmother, and a sister. These roles brought her some of her greatest joys. She poured herself into the people she loved - celebrating their victories, praying through their struggles, and showing up whenever she was needed. Sandy leaves behind a legacy of faithfulness - not flashy or loud, but steady, sincere, and strong. A legacy of serving others, loving deeply, and pointing people to God through the way she lived. Though our hearts hurt today, we also hold gratitude. Gratitude for her life, her love, her example, and the way she blessed each of us. And we have the hope that the same Lord she served with her whole heart is the One who now holds her in perfect peace. Sandy was preceded in death by her husband, Rev. Dennis Wolver, her parents, Dorothy & Sam Giovingo and brother Paul Giovingo. She leaves behind her children, Jimmy Wolver and wife Chelsea, Mike Wolver, Denny Wolver and wife Darlene and Sarah Love and husband Jeffrey. She also leaves behind her grandchildren, Erica, Dylan, Layton, Savana, Taylor, Jaden, Kaitlyn and Zack, great grandchildren, Frankie, Charlie and Raiden. Sandy will be dearly missed, but she will never be forgotten. Her legacy for the Lord will live on thru her children and children's children. Griffin-Roughton Funeral Home

Helen was born on July 30, 1938, in Troy, Texas, to Mary Elizabeth and James Marshall Ellington. She grew up on a small farm in Troy, Texas, in the middle of 6 siblings. She graduated from Troy High School and started a job with Texas Power & Light in Temple, TX. She later married John Hagler and began their journey of building a family. She was a devoted mother whose life was a testament of profound love and enduring hope. She first knew heartbreak of carrying and delivering her beloved daughter, Joyce Ann Hagler, who was born on June 28, 1964. Though her time was brief, Joyce Ann made her a mother. Three years later her heart expanded with joy as she was blessed with her son, John Todd Hagler, who came to her through adoption. With a couple of years of being a mom she gave birth to her second daughter, Joni Beth, in September of 1969. Her heart was full and her family was complete. Lastly, six years later she gave birth to her third child, Mandy Jo, in August of 1975. She raised her children with pure love and unwavering devotion, always making each of them feel very loved and supported. She became a NeNe to her first granddaughter, Ashley Nicole in 2000. She officially retired in 2000 and flourished in being a grandmother. She welcomed her second granddaughter, Emily Ann, in 2003 and her third granddaughter, Ava Marie, in 2005. Seeing her be a grandmother to her grandchildren was the greatest love of all. She cherished her role as grandmother to Ashley Nicole, Emily Ann, and Ava Marie, offering them love, guidance, and support. She enjoyed picking them up from school, helping with homework, and making after-school snacks. She guided them through life with unconditional love and comfort. NeNe always made each of them feel as though they were her whole world whenever they were in her presence. She was preceded in death by her parents, James Marshall and Mary Elizabeth Ellington, her beloved husband, John Hagler, her siblings Bill Ellington, Jimmye Kelly, Margaret Hildebrandt, Barbara Hilliard and daughter, Joyce Ann Hagler. She is survived by her children: Todd Hagler and wife Liza, Joni Price and husband Scotty, and Mandy Capet and husband Chad; her grandchildren Ashley Montelongo, Emily Montelongo, and Ava Capet; and her sisters, Linda Hammer and Betty Vaughan.
