Deborah Lynn Hail Waller, beloved mother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister and cousin, went to be with the Lord on January 20, 2026, at the age of 71. She was with her daughter and passed in peace.

Born on January 18, 1955, in San Angelo, Texas to Bessie Shaw Hail and Fred Monroe Hail, Deb was the first daughter and third child of a loving home with siblings Michael, Gregory, and Phyllis. Brought up with faith, determination and a love of animals, she preferred to be outside with her brothers working for their daddy rather than in the house. She and her siblings, Michael and Phyllis, stayed close as adults after losing their father and brother, both at a young age. Her adult life started hard, but with her own compass, she made her way through without losing faith that God would take care of her and her girls. Deb had a passion for horses, dogs, and enjoyed paper crafts and her vacations to do glass crafts with her cousin Truda. Deb worked hard, raised two daughters with faith and love, and always made time for family. Throughout her life, she was a source of unconditional love and help to her loved ones who will forever be grateful for having her light in their lives.

She is survived by her children, Melissa Gillespie and her husband Joshua Gillespie, Michelle Phelps and her partner Brian Long, her grandchildren, Kayden Gillespie, Blake Long, Savanah Phelps and her boyfriend Joshua Baken, Stetson Phelps and his wife Miranda Phelps, her great-grandchildren, Aubrey Phelps, Cooper Phelps, and Kinsley Phelps, two of her dogs, Willie, her beloved chihuahua and Skye, her quirky blue heeler, and many other relatives that will miss her warmth and kindness.

A funeral service to honor and celebrate Deb’s life will be held at Harper Funeral Home on January 31, 2026, at 10am. Friends and family are invited to attend to pay their respects and share their memories.

If you prefer, in lieu of flowers, the family appreciates donations in Deb’s honor to be made to "Train a Dog, Save a Warrior", www.tadsaw.org, an organization that matches service members or veterans in need with a shelter dog and provides training, both causes close to Deb’s heart.

"For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands." (2 Corinthians 5:1).

Vesta was born in Stamford, Texas on September 20, 1928 to Rafe Teague Ferrell and Sarah Jenkins Ferrell. She was the youngest of 7 born in this family. Vesta married O.D. Toney on May 30, 1947 and they had two children, Michael Wayne Toney and Margie Nell Toney Laughlin. Vesta and O.D. were married for over 63 years when he passed away in 2010. Vesta is survived by her daughter, Margie of San Angelo, two grandsons, Chris Trevathan and Ryan Trevathan, both of San Angelo, and several nieces and nephews along with their families.

Vesta was preceded in death by her parents, her son Michael in 1978, five sisters Mildred Harshberger, Velma Sims, Ava Hardin, Vera Vineta Stremmel, Lavern Hill, and one brother Royce Ferrell.

Vesta and her family lived in Los Angeles for 13 years where she proudly claims to have taught herself to drive on the freeways there. The Toneys then moved back to Texas where they lived over 50 years in San Angelo. Vesta was a member of the Church of Christ and worshipped at the Chadbourne North congregation at the time of her passing.

Vesta was a respected and loved resident at Rio Concho Manor for over 10 years. Vesta was a volunteer for Meals for the Elderly in San Angelo and was employed for over 20 years at Ethicon as a supervisor in the Quality Assurance department where she made many lifelong friends.

Vesta lived out her faith in many ways and was a wonderful example of God’s grace and mercy to her family and many others in San Angelo. Being the last living sibling in her family, she was a “second mom” to many of her nieces and nephews and others in the family. She often said she prayed for each of her family members every day, and her words of wisdom and encouragement were so treasured. One of her favorite times was when many of her family would worship together with her. Those sitting next to her would feel her gentle hands reach out and hold their hands during prayers.

While living in California, her sister LaVerne and family lived nearby leading to a special closeness between those two families. But, knowing Vesta, she showed no partiality and loved all her family. Vesta’s closeness to her brother, Royce, was so apparent as she cared for him in many ways as his health began to fail. Vesta loved to travel and made several lengthy road trips with her oldest sister, Mildred. Their special bond started when Mildred helped care for Vesta as an infant. Vesta and O.D. raised several farm animals while living on the edge of San Angelo leading Vesta to become an efficient goat milker and advocate of drinking goat milk. She and Hondo, the donkey, had several interesting days together on the “farm”. Vesta loved her Volkswagons and her dogs!

Vesta will be missed so much, as will her kind and encouraging words. Her guidance and advice helped many of her family through difficult times. Her love for Jesus Christ was so apparent and she lived a full life. Vesta now has a face to put with a holy and beloved name.

II Timothy 4:7-8 describes Vesta’s journey so well

“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.”

Donations in memory of Vesta can be made to Meals for the Elderly, 310 E. Houston Harte, San Angelo, TX 76903

Don't grieve for me for now I'm free,

I'm following the path God laid for me

I took his hand when I heard him call,

I turned my back and left it all

I could not stay another day,

To laugh, to love, to work or play

Tasks left undone must stay that way,

I've found that peace at the close of day

If my parting has left a void,

Then fill it with remembered joy

A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,

Ah yes, these things I too will miss

Be not burdened with times of sorrow,

I wish for you the sunshine of tomorrow

My life's been full, I've savored much,

Good friends, good times, my loved one's touch

If my time seemed all too brief,

Don't lengthen it now with undue grief

Lift up your heart, rejoice with me,

God wanted me now, He set me free.
