It is with a very gracious, yet heavy heart that we share the passing of a beautiful soul. Sweet Virginia Renea passed from this world on February 23, 2024, after a long battle with cancer.
Born to Hank LeDon Murray and Kelly Dawn Sullivent on September 27th of 1982 in Ranger, TX she blossomed like a sunflower in the world. Virginia was known for her wild spirit and her wanderlust heart. She dreamed of a world of adventure to anywhere her feet and mind would take her, whether that be the mountains and streams of Colorado or the sunflower fields of Kansas. She was known to always travel and move wherever her mind took her. In her wandering mind, she would become very fluent within the customer service and management industry. She had a heart to lead and guide those around her and never failed to show kindness and compassion in an industry that always needs loving individuals. Along with her time in the working world, she would become a mom to three beautiful boys. Her oldest child was born in 2000. She proceeded to adopt a fourth child in the latter years of her life. Genny would continue to battle and fight for the never-ending life that she had dreamed of. She would grow in her journey with Christ, by attending Lake Leon Baptist Church, which she called her church home and helped her establish her relationship with God.

Genny was loved by people far and wide. Her spirit was fierce, yet her love was gentle and kind. Her joys came from spending time with her family and her love for the music artist, Jelly Roll. She lived vicariously through music. Her love for family was unconditional. She had a desire of being closer to Jesus.
