Virginia Dunn Thomas was born on May 5, 1943, in Big Spring, Texas. She passed unexpectedly but peacefully from this world to her home in Heaven on November 28, 2021, at her house in Clear Lake. She was 78. She spent the first five years of life on a cotton farm in Stanton, Texas, and then moved with her family to Lamesa. With two older brothers, Bill, and Sherrod, she developed a reputation for toughness, and found her mission, at least for a few years, of "torturing" her brothers, "pushing buttons" as only a little sister can do. And Virginia was happy to say that more than 50 first cousins living around her experienced that torture as well.
In her teenage years, Virginia loved to sing. She participated in choir competitions at school, and she sang in the church choir at First Baptist Lamesa. She was runner up in the Miss Lamesa pageant and graduated from Lamesa High School in 1961. While attending West Texas State University in Canyon, she met Steve Thomas, and they were married on February 28, 1962.
Her life will be remembered and celebrated in a memorial service at University Baptist Church, 16106 Middlebrook Dr., Houston, on Thursday, December 16, at 1:30 pm.
Virginia will be laid to rest with her beloved husband Steve in a graveside service at Dreamland Cemetery in Canyon, TX on January 13, 2022, at 2:00 pm.
