Letha Dell

Bailey

Letha Dell (Moore) Bailey was born November 1,1934, in Blanchard, Oklahoma, to Jesse Mae and John L Moore. She was the baby of eleven children. She had four brothers, and six sisters. Growing up, they all attended Blanchard's local Pentecostal church. She went to be with her Lord and Savior Sunday, June 22, 2025, in Marble Falls, Texas.

She was a student at Blanchard High School and was known by her peers as Letha Dell. After moving from Blanchard, she dropped "Letha" and preferred to go by Dell all of her adult life.

Dell graduated from beauty school in Oklahoma City and worked as a hairdresser for several years. She opened her own beauty salon in El Paso, Texas, "Dell's Beauti-Rama," with great success for many years.

In 1965, she moved to Corpus Christi, Texas, to be close to her sister, Veda. Dell bought a yellow house there and made many fun memories. Around the age of fifty, she rededicated her life to serve Jesus Christ. She expressed to her daughter, Edrian, she would love to attend Rhema Bible College in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Edrian encouraged her to follow her dreams. Dell then listed her house and financed the loan for the buyer in order to attend Bible college.

She then traveled to Midland, Texas, for an extended visit with her niece, Pat Morgan and Pat's daughter Gina (who was a teenager at the time). Dell was very close to Pat as they were only a couple years apart and had grown up together. Gina would spend summer vacations visiting with her Aunt Dell.

Around 1987-88, Dell moved to Tulsa and registered to attend Rhema Bible Training Center. She completed a two-year degree on May 18, 1990; and became a strong witness for the Lord.

Later, she moved to the Houston area and sold insurance under the supervision of Homer Boen, her sister Opal's husband. She was great at sales and never met a stranger.

Her niece, Linda Lemmon, (Veda's daughter) inspired her to work in real estate. Dell earned her realtors license and sold houses for a period of time. She eventually decided to buy a home in Tomball, Texas and retire.

Dell loved her large family dearly. She attended the family reunions with great joy. Aunt Dell loved spending time not only with her siblings, but all the nieces, nephews, and cousins.

And of course, the grandchildren and great grandchildren as the family continued to grow. She loved each and every one of them. She will be greatly missed.

Dell was preceded in death by her parents, four brothers, six sisters, and grandson, Daniel Lee Euering. She is the last of the eleven Moore children. She is survived by her daughter, Edrian Diane and husband Fred Euering of Burnet, Texas; one son, Bruce Lushbough and wife, Carol of Richmond, Texas; four granddaughters, Jessica Renee and husband, Jack Arnold of Lakeway, Texas, Kimberly Diane and husband Jayson Nix of Lewisville, Texas, Jennifer Coleen and husband, Kyle Beard of Spring, Texas, Amy Elizabeth and husband Chad Stine of Richmond, Texas; five great granddaughters, Jocelyn Renee and Josie Annadelle Arnold, Emersyn Reese and Carleigh Rea Stine, Annika Tori Nix; one great grandson,Truett Lee Nix and many other nieces, nephews, and cousins.
