Vanessa Lynn Bailey Gordon, 48, entered the gates of heaven on August 3rd, 2024. Vanessa was born on July 3rd, 1976, in McKinney, Texas. Vanessa was the daughter of John and Judy Gordon, both of who preceded her in death. Vanessa graduated from The Colony High School in 1994. She then went on to earn three more degrees, a bachelor's in social work, and a master's in both school and professional counseling as well as earning an alternative teaching certificate.

Vanessa was blessed with a wonderful husband, Adam Bailey, with whom they vowed their love to one another and made the commitment of marriage on June 14th, 2008. Together they had the incredible opportunity to adopt a little boy, Michael Bailey, on September 7th, 2017. Vanessa was always so close to her younger sister, Christy Faylor and her family, husband, Cory Faylor, and two daughters, Kaylee and Mackenzie. There was always something so special to her about spending quality time with her family, watching Michael and Mackenzie running around and just being able to be present with everyone around her. Vanessa had such a kind and giving heart, she was extremely compassionate and always put others before her own needs. Vanessa was always growing herself in her faith and loved to guide others through times of need. She was truly a huge inspiration to everyone who crossed paths with her, there wasn’t ever one person who would walk away without knowing that she’d always be there for them during their times of need. We are immensely grateful for all the time and memories that came from knowing her over the past 48 years. Vanessa Lynn Bailey Gordon was a loving and caring wife, mother, sister, aunt, and friend.

Vanessa was a licensed professional counselor who always gave 110% to her clients no matter what. She took pride in knowing that the people she helped were successful. About 26 years ago, shortly after completing university, Vanessa went on to begin her counseling and social work career with Denton County MHMR. Before becoming a licensed professional counselor, Vanessa spent her time working at Ethridge Elementary, Killeen Middle School, and Delay Middle School, in the special education department. Recently, Vanessa decided to better further her career by becoming a licensed professional counselor, working at a few different facilities, including Treehouse Counseling and Christian Works for 6 years. No matter where she was working or what her job title was, she was always putting in effort to constantly help others. For the past 14 years, Vanessa spent her free time supporting two children through the Christian humanitarian organization, World Vision. She adored being able to provide and encourage these two through every step of their childhood, her husband, Adam, will continue this with their most recent sponsor. Vanessa full-heartedly advocated for World Vision and their message, always talking to anyone who would listen about this nonprofit organization. Vanessa always had such a gentle and giving heart and was always striving to make this world a kinder place one step at a time.

When Vanessa was not helping people, she enjoyed plays, especially musicals and melodramas at various venues. She also loved to travel and explore new places. She had such a huge heart for Jesus, and she felt closest to him when she was in the mountains in Colorado or on the water listening to the waves hit the shore or a rushing river. Family was everything to Vanessa and she loved fiercely.&nbsp;

Vanessa leaves behind loving memories to be cherished by her devoted husband, Adam Bailey; her son, Michael Bailey; her sister Christy Faylor, her husband Cory Faylor, and their two daughters Kaylee Troost and Mackenzie Faylor; and everyone whose hearts she's touched.&nbsp;

Funeral Service will be held at Mulkey-Mason Funeral Home, 740 S. Edmonds Lane, Lewisville, Texas 75067 at 3 pm on Monday, August 12th, 2024, and visitation will be an hour beforehand at 2 pm the same day.

Tina Jean Roe passed away unexpectedly at her home in Goodland, KS on August 5, 2024.&nbsp;

She was born to Dale and Betty (Howard) Taylor in Leoti, KS on July 23, 1957. After Betty passed away they then moved to Goodland where she lived most of her life. Dale met and married Jeanette Fletcher on May 5th, 1962. On September 29, 2003 she married Bruce Roe in Georgetown, CO. With this marriage they both gained a child.&nbsp;

Tina was a woman of many talents and held several different types of jobs around Goodland to include: Schlosser Concrete, Sherman County Dispatch, Good Samaritan Society, GED Para, Cowboy Corner and the Moose Lodge. A couple of her more notable jobs include Rasure Lumber where she worked for many years and mixing paint was her specialty and USD 352 West Elementary where she worked until she chose to retire. In her retirement her passion for flowers thrived and she spent many hours watering the flowers on Main Street for the City of Goodland and tending to her own flower beds.

She may have been a small woman but everybody who knew her would agree that she had the biggest heart and a big personality to match. She loved fiercely and would do absolutely anything for her friends and loved ones. One of her favorite things was being “Mimi” to her grandkids.

She is preceded in death by her husband Bruce, her parents, her brothers Dale and David Carter.&nbsp;

Survivors include: her daughter Jennifer (Steve) Arntt of Goodland, her son Blake (Michelle) Roe of Goodland, her grandchildren Dalton (Tresta) Arntt, Wyatt Arntt, Cadie Arntt, Alexis Gatz, and Henry Roe, her sisters Brenda (Robert) Short of Macon, MO and Lisa (Steve) Emick of Garden City along with several cousins, nieces, nephews, aunts and uncles.

John Michael “Mike” McBride, 77, Salina, passed away in his home on August 4, 2024, surrounded by loved ones.

Mike was born in Colby Kansas to parents Azel (Hopper) and John McBride. Although the family lived in several other places, they eventually returned to Colby where Mike graduated from High School in 1965. After graduation, Mike joined the Air Force and served five years overseas in Japan and Vietnam. After the service Mike returned to Colby and drove a bus route.

It was in Colby that Mike met the love of his life, Jackie, and they were married on December 9, 1972, at United Methodist Church, Colby.

He loved metal detecting as a hobby and became an independent dealer for MineLab metal detectors. He enjoyed collecting antique guns and coins.

Mike was most proud of two things: his military service and his grandchildren. If you ever met him, you have heard stories about both.

Over the year, Mike volunteered as a Boy Scout Troop Leader, soccer coach, and baseball coach. He was also a lifetime member of the VFW.

Mike was preceded in death by his parents, sister-in-law Jane McBride, and brother-in-law Lloyd Wolf. He leaves behind to grieve his passing: wife Jackie, of the home; son Wiley (Kendra) McBride of Hays, Kansas; grandchildren McKena, Kaden, and Kamden McBride of Hays; brother Lynn McBride of Paola; sister Kay Wolf of Hutchinson; brothers-in-law Rick (Peggy) Tillett and Rod Tillett of Salina, and Rory Tillett of Claflin, and numerous nieces and nephews.
