Agnes Vanhoy Obituary

Agnes Camille Barham Vanhoy, 87, of Kernersville went to be with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on November 15, 2025, surrounded by her loving family while under the care of Novant Health Forsyth Medical Center in Winston-Salem. Born in Rockingham County, North Carolina, she was the daughter of the late Grady and Alma (Moore) Barham and wife of the late Roylee Elvin Vanhoy.

Agnes and her husband, Roylee, moved to Kernersville in the early 1960's. She retired from Hanes Dye and Finishing after 33 years of dedicated service. Agnes was also a faithful member of Kernersville Wesleyan Church, having attended for more than 50 years and continued to attend even after her health began to decline. She loved the Lord, Jesus Christ, and her church, and was always willing to share her faith with others.

Agnes is survived by her daughters, Lora Clark (Gary), Pam Cofer, Carla Blackburn (Mike); her grandchildren, Jennifer, Kristen, Emily, Megan, Dakota, Benjamin, Austin, Trey, and Seth; her fifteen great-grandchildren; and her sister, Maxine Tuttle.

In addition to her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by son, Randall Vanhoy and son-in-law, Brian Cofer.

The family will receive friends at Kernersville Wesleyan Church, 930 N Main St, Kernersville, NC 27284 on Friday, November 21, 2025, from 12:00 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. Funeral services will follow beginning at 2:00 p.m. with Pastor Travis Shannon and Pastor Leon Thompson officiating.
