Stacy Ruth Kissinger

Stacy Ruth “Saucy” Kissinger, 59, of Mineral Wells, Texas, passed away peacefully on December 17, 2025, after a courageous battle with cancer. Born on December 16, 1966, in Fort Worth, Texas. Stacy lived a life defined by passion, perseverance, and an unshakeable spirit that inspired all who knew her. 

A proud graduate of Arlington High School, Stacy excelled in everything she put her mind to. From the volleyball court, track and field, to riding and showing champion-grade cutting horses, she also participated in 4-H Club. She was a natural competitor whose strength and tenacity earned her many blue ribbons and even more respect. Her competitive nature was always tempered by her compassionate heart, a real balance that defined every facet of her life. Stacy went on to attend Baylor University in Waco and Texas Tech University in Lubbock. 

It was during these years that fate brought her and Danny Kissinger together at a Fort Worth, Texas dance hall. The two married in 1992, later welcoming their beloved children, Kirby Ruth Kissinger-Ingram and Colby David Lloyd Kissinger. Together, they built a warm and lively home first in Mansfield, then in Arlington where she founded a company that became the cornerstone in supporting her family, and finally her and her family settled in Mineral Wells, Tx. 

Known affectionately as “Saucy,” to her grandchildren: Lyla Jo Ingram, Rome Ingram, Josephine Kissinger, Conrad Kissinger and Royce Kissinger. Stacy's favorite pastime included loving and spending time with her family, she loved dancing, lake days, pool time, lighting up the shuffleboard and sharing laughter with friends. Stacy was a light who lit up every room she entered. Throughout her life, Stacy continuously found ways to give back to her community, whether it was sharing her faith with others at Camp Thurman, volunteering at local charities or getting involved in various school boards throughout her children's education, she made an impact on everyone she touched. Her faith remained strong to the end, leaning on God's promises, a genuine believer in Jesus Christ. A verse Stacy embodied was Philippians 1:21: *“For me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.”

A memorial service celebrating Stacy’s remarkable life will be held at Weston Gardens in Fort Worth on January 5th from 2–4 p.m.
