Lavonda, though weak in body, was strong in spirit. Those who knew Lavonda were aware of her love for her Jesus. She treasured every moment with her family. Lavonda was born in Lubbock, Tx to JR and Shirley Bates. She is preceded in death by her parents, her daughter Crystal "Red" Sewell, her granddaughter Tessa Nicole Sewell, and sister Sheryl Thorne. She is survived by her husband Michael Hastey of Lorenzo, Daughter Brandy Gilbreath and husband Don; four grandsons, one great-grandchild, Eldest brother Tommy Bates, Timmy and wife Tammy and two sisters, Susan Campbell and Amanda Holmes. LaVonda was also fortunate enough to have gained several children by marriage, Crystal Meister, Velvet Key, Shannon Summers and Leah Ball.

Special thanks to those of Hospice who lovingly cared for her during past months of her life.
