VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA
Camille Bailey Donaldson, 61, a resident of Virginia Beach, died Saturday, September 13, 2008 in a local hospital. Born February 10, 1947, she was the daughter of the late Roger J. and Margaret Rosser Bailey. Camille graduated from Radford College in 1969. She was also a graduate of Averett University with degrees in Early Childhood Education. She taught for several years in the Virginia Beach public school system, until health issues forced her to retire. Camille is survived by her husband of 35 years, James William Donaldson; a son, James Roger Donaldson of Medina, OH; and a brother, Charles Bailey of Wakefield.
A talented Christian woman, Camille genuinely and enthusiastically lived her life according to the principles of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. In her early life, she was a very active member of the Rocky Hock United Methodist Church (UMC) in Wakefield, where she and her mother taught Vacation Bible School (VBS) for many years. As an affiliated member of Courthouse Community UMC in Virginia Beach, she has participated in a wide variety of activities. She was the first president of the United Methodist Women; taught VBS for several years; was active in many Bible study groups; and started the first church library. She was a talented artist and used her love of arts and crafts to start the Crafts Bizarre at Courthouse Community UMC. Camille was currently the Treasurer and a member of the Board of Directors of Virginia Beach TRIAD. She was also instrumental in starting the Neighborhood Watch in her community. In all of these activities and accomplishments, Camille exhibited the humility of a servant who never sought nor expected recognition for her efforts.
A memorial service will be held at 4:00 p.m., Tuesday, September 16, 2008 at Courthouse Community UMC in Virginia Beach, with Rev. Fred Brockhausen and Rev. Fran Cooper presiding. A reception for Camilleâ??s family and friends will follow in the church fellowship hall. Burial will be private in Rocky Hock Church Cemetery, Wakefield.
