CHRISTENE BAILEY

A funeral service honoring Mrs. Christene Bailey will be held at Crestview 
Baptist Church Wednesday, May 14, at 10:00 am. Burial will follow at Weldon 
Church Cemetery in Bernice, LA. Bro. Wayne Whiteside and Bro. Harvey Hoffman 
will be officiating.

Mrs. Christene crossed the finish line to her eternal home on Saturday, May 10. 
She finished strong for Christ after 90 years of service. She was born in 1923, 
May 20 and passed from this life 9 days short of her 91st birthday.

Mrs. Bailey, with her husband Wilbur Bailey, traveled the U. S. and Canada 
helping with church planting and building projects. She and Mr. Bailey helped 
start Crestview Baptist in Farmerville. Christene and Wilbur were faithful 
members of Crestview as long as they were physically able.

She is preceded in death by her husband of 68 years Wilbur; sister, Pauline 
Coltharp; brother, C.C. Gray; and parents, J.W. and Captola Gray.

Those left to cherish her memory are: sons, Barry Bailey and wife Gay of West 
Monroe, LA; Dr. Don Bailey and wife Kim of Hot Springs Village, AR; daughters, 
Peggy Frasier and husband Danny of Farmerville, LA; Tina Roush and husband 
Johnny of Farmerville, LA. Mrs. Bailey has 12 grandchildren and 17 great-
grandchildren.

Pallbearers will be grandsons, Mitch Bailey, Marty Bailey, Steven Frasier, Jason 
Hyatt, and Donovan Bailey.

The family would like to thank those who cared for Mrs. Bailey: all those at 
Arbor Lake plus St Joseph Hospice. We especially thank her nurse Nita Gandy and 
the hospice sitters. A special thanks to her personal caregivers, Denise Jones, 
and Mary Ann Goodjoint.

The family will receive guests from 5:00 P.M. to 7:00 P.M. Tuesday, evening at 
Crestview Baptist Church.

The family request that memorials be sent to Crestview Baptist Church, P.O. Box 
242 Farmerville, LA., to be included in the Georiga Barnette Mission offering or 
Louisiana Baptist children's Home.
