A funeral service will be held at Sneed-Carnley Funeral Chapel at 10 am on Monday, June 6, 2022, with a visitation an hour prior. Burial will be private at Coleman City Cemetery.
Ferrell grew up in Glen Cove, Texas where her father owned and operated a country store. She graduated from Talpa High School, where she was a twirler and played on the basketball team.
She returned to the workplace after her first husband, Noris Sneed died in 1984, working for LISD in the deaf education department. She later served as Director of First Baptist Pre-School and finally as a middle school library aide.
Ferrell married Noris Sneed on January 5, 1956, and they were happily married for 28 years. In 2003 she married Roy Koon. Ferrell was a member of First Baptist Church where she served as church pianist for many years. She enjoyed sewing clothes for all of her children, crocheting, knitting and quilting. Her hot rolls and butterscotch pie were unbeatable.
Ferrell was preceded in death by her parents; her sister, Ladell King, and her first husband, Noris Sneed.
Survivors include her spouse, Roy Koon of Lampasas, TX; her daughters, Janet Stephens of Midland and Diane Heath (Tom) of Meadow, TX; and sons, Mark Sneed (Meg) and Jeff Sneed (Tricia) both of Lampasas; 8 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren.
