Fay Loggins Creek, 73, passed away Saturday, June 11, 2011. Her husband of 55 years, Billy Floyd Creek, 76, passed away Friday, Sept. 30, 2011. Graveside service: A memorial service for Mr. and Mrs. Creek will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday, June 8, 2013, at the Voss Cemetery Pavilion in Voss, Coleman County. The service is under the direction of Stevens Funeral Home, 400 W. Pecan St., Coleman. Memorials: Safehaven of Tarrant County Arlington, 401 W. Sanford, Suite 1400, Arlington, Texas 76011, or the Scottish Rite Hospital for Children. Mrs. Creek was born Sept. 8, 1937, in Leaday, the daughter of Ira and Eula Loggins. Mr. Creek was born in Leaday on July 26, 1935, the son of Floyd and Allie Mae Creek. Mr. and Mrs. Creek were married Feb. 19, 1956, and relocated in 1957 to Arlington, where they raised their children and were active in their community. Fay Creek was a loving mother, grandmother and great-grandmother who donated her spare time to the Arlington Woman's Shelter. Mrs. Creek attended Highland Baptist Church. She always had a sparkle in her eye and a kind word to say for all those she met during her life's journey. Most neighborhood children simply referred to her as Mom. Billy Creek retired from the Arlington Fire Department. He loved fishing, golf, coaching his children's baseball and softball teams and was a member of the Masonic Lodge. Upon learning of his imminent death, Billy's last wish was to hit one more hole in one and catch one more crappie. Mr. Creek was preceded in death by two sisters, Betty and Barbara, and one brother, Bailey "Rusty" Creek. Survivors: Their children, DeAnna Creek of Arlington and David Creek and wife, Dr. Sandra Lauriat, of Dallas; grandchildren, Kaylie Creek, Cody Creek and Connor Creek; four great-grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews. Mr. Creek was also survived by his brothers, Boyd, Bobby, Barry, Buddy, Benny and Bruce Creek. Mrs. Creek was also survived by a brother, Robert Lee Loggins of Voss, who passed away Nov. 16, 2012.

Hi DeAnna, I just read about your Mom and Dad. It brings back memories of days gone by. I was better aquainted with your Mom. She was always so much fun and such a sweet, sweet person and I hope your Dad got to hit the golf course and do a bit of fishing like he wanted. Difficult times for your family in a very short while.
Highland is still my church home. I don't know if you
remember my husband Norman. He served as Pastor at Highland several years before he died in December of 2011. I hope things have gone well for you through the years. Lots of prayers for comfort and peace for you and your family in the days ahead. With much love,
