    Eva Bailey

    May 13, 1933 - April 26, 2022

    PRINCETON – Eva Maria Bailey, 88, of Princeton, died Tuesday, April 26, 2022. Born May 13, 1933 in Waldo, KY, she was the daughter of the late Green Miller and Georgeann Wireman Miller. Education was an important part of Eva’s life. From poor Kentucky farm beginnings, sneaking off to read books was the norm for her. Moving to West Virginia and starting a job at the Bluefield Daily Telegraph helped with school tuition at Concord College. After completing a Master of Science degree from WVU, she was on her way. She taught in Mercer County schools until she retired to care for her beloved husband, William E. Bailey, until his death. Because of her devotion to education, she was a substitute teacher until her health began to fail. Those closest to her will continue to cherish her memory. Eva was a wonderful and devoted mom to her only son, David. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by several brothers and sisters. She is survived by one son, David Bailey and his wife Dee of Bluefield. A graveside service will be conducted at 12:00 p.m. Tuesday, May 3, 2022 at Roselawn Memorial Gardens in Princeton with Chaplain Jim Worsham officiating. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to MSA Hospice in Richlands, Virginia. Arrangements by Bailey-Kirk Funeral Home in Princeton. Online condolences may be shared with the family at www.bailey-kirk.com.
