Lynelle Joyce Kingrey was born February 3, 1966, to the late Lester Hershel Kingrey and Janelle Funchess Kingrey. Lynelle received her Angel Wings on Thursday, May 14, 2015, at Baptist Hospitals of Southeast Texas, Beaumont. She attended Central High School, where she graduated in 1988.

Lynelle lit up a room, whenever she walked in, whether it was her beautiful blue eyes, or the clapping of her hands. She met no strangers, but those who knew her, knew her well.

Lynelle loved singing, dancing, and socializing. Her favorite song was John Denver's "Take Me Home, Country Roads."

Lynelle’s memories will forever be in the hearts of her extended family and 'Angel Keepers' of Lynetta and Lisa's Dignified Angels, Lynetta McCreary, Lisa Viscardis, Amber Staten, Loretta Savoy, Linda Faye Williams, Therena Guillory, Ina Merkelz, and the Providers of Spindletop Center (formally Beaumont State Center).

A very special thanks to Karan Shay, for the faith she had in us, as well allowing us the opportunity to provide Lynelle with the dignified life she so rightly deserved.

Miss Kingrey’s funeral service will be 10:30 a.m., Monday, May 18, 2015, at Broussard’s, 2000 McFaddin Avenue, Beaumont, with interment to follow at Hardin Memorial Park, Silsbee.
