2016 Obit:

Christine T. Reed, of Christiansburg, died January 5, 2016, after a long life filled with love for her family and devotion to God. She was 85.

Born April 28, 1930, Audrey Christine Thompson was the oldest daughter of Trigg and Lala Thompson of Floyd County.

She married Chrisley Harden Reed on Sept. 7, 1951. They were married 64 years.
She is survived by her husband, three sons and four grandchildren: Wayne and Diana (deceased) of Nashville, their sons Erik (deceased) and Kevin; Gary and Linda of Sacramento, Calif.; Jeff and Tammy of Christiansburg, their children Caleb, Tanner and Erika.

She had nine brothers and sisters: Cedric, Glenn, Betty Teel and Russell who preceded her in death; and Major, Joe, Erma Jean Gallimore, Nancy Tackett and Marie Hensley.

After growing up on a farm in Floyd County, she worked as a teller at the Bank of Christiansburg. In the early '70s she served as postmaster in Copper Valley, Floyd County.

She was a longtime member of the Christiansburg Church of Christ, where she had many wonderful friends and served as the church's secretary. For the past few years, she attended the Laurel Hill Church of Christ.

Christine enjoyed painting and crafts, card games and jigsaw puzzles. She was an excellent cook and baker. Fried chicken, gravy and biscuits were a frequent request from Harden. Snickerdoodles, peanut butter cookies and fruitcake were always on the Christmas treats list. She made the best black raspberry jelly and tasty homemade bread.

She loved to travel with family and friends, with trips to the Holy Lands and England, to the California coast and Hawaii, Newfoundland and the Canadian Rockies, Myrtle Beach and Disney World. She also was known for her long, brisk walks through the neighborhood.

Most of all, she loved family and friends, raising her children and taking care of her grandchildren. She made everyone feel welcome in her home. Thompson reunions were summer rituals not to be missed. Close friendships developed through church were cherished.

Thank you to Jeff and Tammy for caring for Christine in her later years and to the staff at Wheatland Hills.

Visitation will be 6-8 p.m. Friday, January 8, 2016, at Horne Funeral Home. Funeral services will be 11 a.m. Saturday, January 9, 2016, at the Christiansburg Church of Christ, with Blake Griffith officiating. Interment will follow in Sunset Cemetery, Christiansburg.

Lewis Randolph Thompson

(src: Find A Grave; photo added by Sammie Wade)

Lewis Randolph Thompson, age 75, passed away peacefully at home with his family by his side on Friday morning, May 8, 2015. He was preceded in death by his parents, Hassell and Judith Thompson, and two sisters, Jean Peters and Judy Miller. He is survived by his loving wife of 30 years, Louise G. Thompson; four children and their spouses: daughter Lisa (Steve) Helms; son Travis (Cheryl) Thompson; son Tater (Robin) Thompson; and daughter Jackie (Barthel) Padgett. He was also blessed with his precious grandchildren: Brian (Shelia) Helms, Jarrad (Megan) Helms, Jordan Helms, Victoria Helms, Stephanie Helms, John Kiker, Matt (Tressa) Kiker, Amber Thompson, Jacqueline Thompson, Dustin Thompson, Jacob Thompson, and Carly Thompson. More blessings include his 4 great-grandchildren: Matthew, Hunter, Ethan, and Tucker Helms. Other survivors include a niece, Jennifer Eggers; nephews, Frankie Peters, Davie Peters, Stevie Peters, and John Miller; and a special aunt, Aleen T. Wade.

Lewis was owner and operator of Simmons Grocery for thirty-five years, and spent the past four years as a bus driver for Floyd County Public Schools. He was a Virginia Tech graduate and an avid supporter of the Floyd County sports program. His enthusiasm and passion were evident as he showed up to cheer for his Buffaloes. Lewis loved watching his grandkids play sports, and could somehow manage to show up for three games in different locations at the same time. He enjoyed bluegrass music and also loved spending time working in his yard and garden, generously sharing the fruits of his labors with his friends and neighbors.

He loved the Lord and his church family, and we take comfort in knowing that Lewis is in the presence of his Heavenly Father, as His Word assures us, “Be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.”

A celebration of Lewis’ life will be held at Pleasant Valley Church of the Brethren, 3883 Alum Ridge Road, Floyd, on Monday, May 11 at 2:00 p.m. with Pastors Roy Turpin and Frankie Peters officiating. Interment will follow at the Thompson Cemetery. The family will receive friends at the church on Sunday evening from 5:00 - 8:00 p.m.

WIRT, OPAL THOMPSON, 83, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and aunt, died at her home at 108 1 / 2 Hagan Street in Christiansburg on Thursday, September 11, 2003.

She was preceded in death by two sons, Jerry Wayne Wirt and Stephen Curtis Wirt; two brothers, Curtis Thompson and Gold Thompson; two sisters, Eva "Eb" Bishop and Frances Thompson.

Born on August 12, 1920 and raised on a farm in Floyd County. Opal was brought up by the simple rules of working hard, staying active, and relying on common sense when facing difficulties. She also believed in always doing your best no matter what the task, which she exemplified during her many years in upholstery work-a trade and talent she loved and truly missed when arthritis prevented her from doing such work. Although she raised six children of her own, she was "Mom" to many of her children's friends through the years. Opal was a good neighbor to her many friends on Hagan Street-running errands, delivering their papers, mowing their yards, and sharing her wonderful homemade jam. She was a very kind and loving little woman and was a true example that it was "quality rather than quantity" that mattered.

She was dearly loved and will be greatly missed by her husband, Everett Wirt of Christiansburg; sons, Roger Wirt of Riner, John Wirt and wife, Darlene of Pilot; daughters, Doris Wirt Huff and husband, Bob of Charlottesville, Lu Wirt Vacca and husband, Steven of Christiansburg; daughter-in-law, Marla Wirt of Newport News; a very special sister and best friend, Mary "Petie" Pugh of Roanoke; sisters, Myrtle Mitchell of Blacksburg, Edith Brammer of Christiansburg, and Cindy Wade of Floyd; brother, Hassel Thompson of Blacksburg; grandsons, Chuck Huff and wife, Cathy, Scott Huff, Cory Wirt and wife, Allison, Kevin Wirt, Joseph Wirt, John Curtis Wirt, Phillip Wirt, Brandon Wirt, and Matthew Wirt; granddaughters, Stephanie Wirt, Amanda Wirt Gland and husband, Steve, Emily Wirt Thrasher and husband, Michael, Susan Wirt, Leah Vacca; and a much beloved granddaughter and caretaker, Lisa Wirt; great-grandchildren, Nikki Glan, Christine, Caroline, and Lillian Huff, Gianna Thrasher, and Austin Wirt; many nieces and nephews; and her beloved pet, friend and guardian, "Alex."

Funeral services will be held at 5 p.m. Sunday, September 14 t h at the Horne Funeral Home Chapel with Dr. Don Makin officiating. The family will receive friends from 6 until 8 p.m. Saturday at the funeral home. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that contributions be made to the American Cancer Society, P.O.
