Deona Wiggins

Diane Bailey welcomed a baby girl into the world. They lovingly named

their daughter Deona Wiggins. She was the first born of two children

and was raised in Houston, Texas. Deona graduated from Aldine

Senior High in the Aldine Independent School District in May 1995.

Deona studied at the University of Houston-Downtown, enriching her

knowledge and deep-seated passion for communication, marketing

and public speaking.

Born with a natural gift for creativity, Deona found joy in every

brushstroke, every stitch and every creation that emerged from her

skilled hands. Her artwork and crafts are a testament to her vibrant

spirit and love for beauty. Beyond her artistic pursuits, Deona was

known for her generous heart and warm personality.

Deona shared her life with her love, Dennis Gibson who preceded her in

death. From their years together, they welcomed four children, Dennis

James Gibson, Dashona Gibson, Devion Gibson (preceded in death)

and Denesia Marie Gibson. Deona loved spending time with her family

and enjoyed listening to music from her favorite entertainer, Usher.

Deona was a free-spirited woman who was independent, creative, and

committed to getting the most out of her life.

On June 2, 2024, Deona became a member of The Fellowship of

Faith Christian Center in Houston, Texas and committed her life to

Christ. Deona expressed her desire to serve in the youth ministry as a

mentor to offer guidance, support and wisdom gained from her own

experiences.
