Sylva Gaye Marshall, d/o Everett Clinton & Maretha Jane (Quesenberry) Marshall. [no file] She’ll m. 2^nd 1955, & divorce 1974, David Matthew Minnick. [no file]

Sylva Marshall Minnick, of Radford, went home to be with the Lord on August 7, 2020 at the age of 96. Sylva was the second of six children born to schoolteacher Maretha Quesenberry & farmer turned nursery entrepreneur, Everett Clinton Marshall in Indian Valley (Floyd, VA). Sylva helped care for her siblings and the home farm throughout her schooling in Willis. After high school graduation in 1942, she left to use the sewing skills she learned from her mother to support the war effort, first at Burlington Mills and then at the Dublin bag-loading plant. Sylva married veteran Charles Junior Bishop in December 1945 and they set off on a grand adventure for Charles to attend the Coyne Electric School in Chicago, Ill. the next Spring. That Fall, they returned to Virginia; Charles worked as an electrician, and Sylva resumed sewing until their first son, Philip, was born a few years later. Sylva persevered through single working motherhood following Charles’ death just three years later, supported by her sister Claudia. After a few years of mourning, she met and married army veteran David Matthew Minnick in 1955. They built and moved in her “dream home” in Radford on her 32nd birthday and welcomed her second son, Kurt, a few years later. Sylva enjoyed raising her sons and her sewing work, particularly at the Christiansburg Overall Factory, until she joined the new Inland Motor Company in Radford at the invitation of a close friend in 1962. Sylva continued her service at Inland for 25 years, through many trying and joyous personal events. Highlights she often referred to included: the loving support of her children, siblings, neighbors and friends through life’s trials, watching her sons succeed in their unique pursuits, welcoming her daughter-in-law, granddaughters and grandsons-in-law into the family, and the birth of her great grandsons. On her vacations and in retirement, Sylva took great joy in traveling - whether visiting Philip on his adventures in the West, taking bus tours all over the U. S., or exploring Hawaii, the Canadian Provinces, and Mexico with friends. She counted her church family among her dearest blessings and remained an active member of Bethel United Methodist Church until her health limited her attendance. She also enjoyed flower gardening, working puzzles, reading, and spending time with her family. Sylva was preceded in death by her parents; brother, Quinton Marshall; and sister, Claudia Roop. She is survived by her beloved sons, Phillip Bishop and Kurt Minnick; devoted daughter-in-law, Karen Minnick; cherished granddaughters, Tracy Bishop, Casey (Niko) Tomooka, Kayla (Adam) Smith, and Karli Minnick; precious great-grandsons, Noah and Owen Tomooka; esteemed brothers, Carmon Marshall and Davis (Rochella) Marshall; sweet sister, Vera Mae Hollandsworth; many dear nephews, nieces, and other extended family members; and numerous special church friends. A private graveside service will be held for immediate family. In lieu of flowers, Sylva’s family recommends that those wishing to make a memorial contribution consider the Radford or Christiansburg Rescue Squads. They extend heartfelt gratitude to the volunteers from both of these squads, as well as the doctors, nurses, and staff at Carilion New River Valley Medical Center and Pulaski Health and Rehab, for patiently assisting with Sylva’s care over the last several months. The family is in the care of Mullins Funeral Home & Crematory in Radford.

Mary Perkins Risacher, b. MI, d/o Joseph Leo & Elizabeth (Dauler) Risacher. [no file]

Anthony "Tony" Equale was a good man. He saw life as an expression of his concern for his fellow man. It was the touchstone of a life well lived. His thoughts were mostly of peace, justice and equality among human beings. In fact, he summed up his life in a way that supersedes any other's description. He had lost his wife Mary a number of years previously but kept her as part of his lifelong perspective. To quote: "Like everything else I have tried to do during my time under the sun, the accumulation and distribution of goods was intended to be an opportunity to share what we have with everyone on our planet. As a matter of practical fact that means sharing with those who are the most insecure because they have the least access to resources. The many years that Mary and I spent living among people poorer than we were in Latin America and the United States taught us that people who are poor suffer from more sickness, live shorter lives, bury more children, are treated with less dignity, endure more injustice and oppression, have more dreams unfulfilled than those who have more. We always felt that the money and goods that we had accumulated that went beyond what we needed for basic survival and security belonged to them. "That sums up his life's perspective in a nutshell. Tony was preceded in death by his mother and father, Nora and Nunzio Equale and his beloved wife, Mary Risacher. He is survived by his brother, Frank; nephew, Francis, and many loving friends and relations. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to: The Mary Risacher Fund c/o The Community Foundation of the New River Valley, P.O. Box 6009, Christiansburg, VA 24068, Tel: 540-381-8999.We will gather at the Gardner Funeral Home in Floyd on Thursday, December 9, 2021, from 6 until 8 p.m. Burial will be held Friday, December 10, 2021, at 10 a.m. at Big Sand Cemetery in Indian Valley, Virginia.

Vernie Akers Phillips, of Willis, Va., passed away Saturday, November 13, 2010. She was born September 2, 1919, to the late Perry and Ollie Akers. Preceded in death by her beloved husband, Martin Phillips; son, Glen B. Phillips; brother, Verlie Akers; sister, Verstle Hinkley; infant brother, Vernard; great-great-granddaughter, Ava Noel Conner; also her two sons-in-law, Walter Reed and Robert Lee.
She is survived by daughters and sons-in-law, Erma J. and Jim Flint, of Riner, Ollie May Lee and fiancé, Johnny Sheppard, of Mechanicsville; grandchildren, Phillip and Susan Reed, of Catawba, Sharon and Donnie Cox, of Willis, Donna and John Wikstrom, of Christiansburg, Deborah Minahan, of Fort Worth, Texas, Robert Lee, of Mechanicsville, Paul and Susan Phillips, of Bedford, Wesley and Stephanie Phillips, of McLean; greatgrandchildren, Amanda and Greg Conner, of Willis, Alicia and Jason Slaughter, of Radford, Patrick Minahan, of Texas, Chris and Amanda Wikstrom, of Stuart, Jacob and Andrew Phillips, of Bedford, Lauren and Rachael Phillips, of McLean; great great-grandchildren, Luke and Joshua Conner, of Willis, Alison and Marlee Slaughter, of Radford; brother, Vernon Akers, of Hiwassee; also her special friends who have helped her so much, Phillip and Betty Weddle. We could not leave out her special pet and companion, Barney.
Vernie was a good loving mother, grandmother, wife and friend to many. Our home life was one where we were taught to be honest in all things and to be kind and to always do right. She made sure we learned to take care of our responsibilities and to work hard to be as good as she expected us to be. She made sure everything was as it should be, to the best of her ability. She was a care-giver to many people in her life and never complained about it. She was a friendly, warm and caring neighbor, even though she had to face many trials that were so hard. We look at her life as an example for us to try to follow.
She will be so very missed by all of her family, it is difficult to imagine her not being here with us, to call and talk to anytime we wish. Our memories will comfort us, and the knowledge that she is with God and her loved ones already gone on before. We will look forward also to being with them again when God calls us. We will strive to be worthy, also.
Funeral services will be held 10 a.m. Monday, November 15, 2010, at Maberry Funeral Home, officiated by Pastor Roy Turpin and the Rev. Vinton Quesenberry. Interment will follow at Big Sand Cemetery.

Mary Perkins Risacher, 61,of Willis, entered the masterpiece December 5, 2005. She was born in Detroit, Mich., July 8, 1944, grew up in Arlington, Va. She attended Webster University, St. Louis Mo. She was a member and co-member of the Sisters of Loretto since 1962. She is survived by her mother, Elizabeth Risacher of Morristown, Tenn.; sister, Linda Copp of Elora, Canada; brother, Paul Risacher of Montreal Canada; and spouse, Tony Equale of Willis. Mary worked in Chile from 1970 to 1973 and in Honduras and Nicaragua, 1981 to 1988. She worked as a home health nurse in Blacksburg and then as a social worker in Tekoa in Floyd County. She was an instructor-administrator in the School of Social Work at Radford University from 1999 to 2005. She will be waked at Gardner Funeral Home in Floyd Wednesday, December 7, from 7 to 9 p.m. and at her home, 414 Riggins Rd., N.W., Willis on Thursday, December 8 all afternoon and evening until 9 p.m. She will be buried in Big Sand Cemetery, Indian Valley, on Friday with a funeral service held in her home at 9 a.m. offered by the sisters of her community. Gardner Funeral Home, Floyd is in charge of the arrangements.

Anthony "Tony" Equale was a good man. He saw life as an expression of his concern for his fellow man. It was the touchstone of a life well lived. His thoughts were mostly of peace, justice and equality among human beings. In fact, he summed up his life in a way that supersedes any other's description. He had lost his wife Mary a number of years previously but kept her as part of his lifelong perspective. To quote: "Like everything else I have tried to do during my time under the sun, the accumulation and distribution of goods was intended to be an opportunity to share what we have with everyone on our planet. As a matter of practical fact that means sharing with those who are the most insecure because they have the least access to resources. The many years that Mary and I spent living among people poorer than we were in Latin America and the United States taught us that people who are poor suffer from more sickness, live shorter lives, bury more children, are treated with less dignity, endure more injustice and oppression, have more dreams unfulfilled than those who have more. We always felt that the money and goods that we had accumulated that went beyond what we needed for basic survival and security belonged to them. "That sums up his life's perspective in a nutshell. Tony was preceded in death by his mother and father, Nora and Nunzio Equale and his beloved wife, Mary Risacher. He is survived by his brother, Frank; nephew, Francis, and many loving friends and relations. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to: The Mary Risacher Fund c/o The Community Foundation of the New River Valley, P.O. Box 6009, Christiansburg, VA 24068, Tel: 540-381-8999. We will gather at the Gardner Funeral Home in Floyd on Thursday, December 9, 2021, from 6 until 8 p.m. Burial will be held Friday, December 10, 2021, at 10 a.m. at Big Sand Cemetery in Indian Valley, Virginia. The family kindly requests all unvaccinated guests do not attend the indoor gathering but will be welcome at the graveside.
