Pamela Jean Bailey, of Fort Worth, Texas, passed away peacefully, surrounded by her children and long-time family friends Friday, May 1, 2026, at the age of 72. Born on November 14, 1953, Pamela lived a life marked by quiet strength, deep compassion, and unwavering love for her family

.

Pamela was a successful business owner of over 30 years, but her true passion was spending time caring for her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. She will be remembered for her faithful and warm heart, her generous spirit, and the way she made others feel seen and cared for. Whether through a thoughtful conversation, a shared laugh, or a simple act of kindness, she had a gift for bringing comfort and connection to those around her.

Pamela's presence will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her. Her life serves as a reminder of the enduring power of faith, kindness, family, and grace.

She is survived by her beloved children, Paul Ellis (Evyn) and Melanie Ellis-Murphy (James); grandchildren, Kayla, Max, and Benjamin Ellis, Olivia Murphy; and great-grandchildren Ema, Mallory, and Madisyn, who carry forward her legacy of love.

Though they are heartbroken by her passing, they are profoundly grateful for the years they shared with their mother—for her guidance, her laughter, and the countless memories that will remain with them always.

She is also survived by her brother, Robert Bailey (Nell) of Ranger, Texas; nephews, Robert Bailey (Alexis) of Acton, Texas, Will Bailey (Jennifer) of Stephenville, Texas; brother-in-law, Evan Faris of Fort Worth, Texas; niece, Stephanie Sanders (Christian) of Cleburne, Texas; and great nieces, Evri, Faris Emily, Charlie, and Sylvie.

Although she did not want a public memorial service, she encourages family to gather and enjoy each other's company and laughter.

In lieu of flowers, she requested that those who wish to honor her memory consider a donation to the Order of the Eastern Star, North Fort Worth #684 Scholarship Fund.
