nee Sabrina Dawn unknown
Devoted husband and
father, Adam Schulze, of Riner, passed away on Friday, October 23, 2015, at
the young age of 38. He was surrounded by love as he passed quietly after a
sudden turn of events.
Adam was big on family and loved coming home to his kids and wife each day.
He enjoyed and cherished every moment because he knew how precious life is,
and how it could change in an instant.
His work had that family atmosphere as well. Adam really enjoyed the people
he worked for and with at Southern Air. He liked going to supply houses and
chatting with people there, and he also enjoyed talking to his customers.
Adam was a Sergeant First Class in the Army National Guard. He served three
tours overseas. He joined because he wanted to serve his country. He was
proud to serve with all of his fellow soldiers. He was only two years away
from retirement.
Adam is survived by his wife, Sabrina; five beautiful children, Shauna,
Garrett, Kylie, Wyatt, and Arick; parents, Peter and Sandy; brother, David
(Kayla); nephews, Liam and Knox; soon-to-be niece, Oma; (Grandmother),
Helga Lopes; and many aunts, uncles, cousins, and in-laws.
Funeral services will be Saturday, October 31, 2015, at 11 a.m. at Grace
Baptist Church with the Rev. Steve Lackey officiating. Interment will
follow in Jacksonville Cemetery. Family will receive friends Friday,
October 30, 2015, at Grace Baptist Church from 2 to 4 and 6 to 8 p.m.
A special thanks to the VCU Neuro Critical Care Unit for doing everything
they could for Adam and family. The family would also like to thank the
military, former military, and community for the outpouring of support
during this difficult time. Online condolences may be made at
www.gardnerfuneralhomefloyd.com. The family is being served by Gardner
Funeral Home, Floyd.

ROANOKE- On February 20th, our beloved ladybug flew away home. She was
preceded in death by her son, Lloyd Odell Simmons, her parents, Elsie and
Noah Reed, two sisters, Murlene Bryant and Imogene Brizendine. She will be
greatly missed by her four daughters: Brenda Bernard of Roanoke, Pat

Roanoke. She had four Grandchildren, Rich (and Felicia) Klotz of TN, Zach
(and Monika) Sizer of Culebra, PR, Larry (and Lily) Simmons of TX, Tracy
(and Erica) Windham of TX. She had six great grandchildren, Larry, Drew,
Kyle, Cameron, Bayleigh, Chase, and one baby, Tiger Lee, who is still
looking for the lap he slept on for the last 8 years. She is leaving behind
three surviving sisters and their families, Ruby (and Gene) Lee of
Troutville, Mary (and Ray) Weddle of Floyd, Velma Carroll of Roanoke and
one brother, Norvell (and Frances) Reed of Roanoke. She was a free spirit
that loved adventure and challenges and her life was filled with them. She
accepted each challenge with undeniable strength and courage. She loved
family and made her children a priority in her life, teaching them to love
and laugh often. She had many jobs along her journey, from working in
sewing plants, to making biscuits to desk clerking. We hope on her new
journey, she s able to eat what she wants and can find a bingo table with a
nice person to tell her life story to sitting beside her. Please come
celebrate her life with us on Tuesday, February 22, 2005, 2 to 4 and 7 to 9
p.m. at Oakey's South Chapel on Brambleton Ave. Services will be held on

Jackson Cemetery in Floyd, Virginia. We'd like to take this opportunity to
thank the staff of The Adult Care Center in Salem. They took wonderful care
of her in the daytime and with their help, we were able to have many more
years and memories with her at home like she wanted. Arrangements by

Ruth Estelle Knowles Simmons, 96, celebrated her
homegoing on March 13, 2023, after a brief illness. She was
born to Jordan and Aldah Knowles on December 23, 1926, in Floyd Co.
Virginia.
She married her love, Vernon B. Simmons, on
October 23, 1950, and was a devoted wife for 63 years. They began married
life in southwest Virginia but soon found their way to Pineville, WV,
where they lived for over thirty-five years. In their retirement years,
they moved to Princeton, WV, to be close to physicians and medical
facilities that they did not want to go to in the first place.
Begrudgingly, in April 2022, Mom made her final
move to Pineview Assisted Living in South Hill, VA. Foremost, she was a
dedicated homemaker, her favorite title, but served in the school
cafeteria, as a retail store clerk, and retired as an insurance company
secretary. Throughout her years, she was an avid seamstress, making
many sets of clothing and costumes for her children and grandchildren,
and most recently being part of a sewing group at church, crafting
dresses and shorts for children in impoverished countries. She spent many
hours in the kitchen cooking and baking as there was never a time when
she did not have, not one, but several sweet treats ready to be eaten.
Her hands were perpetually busy gardening, doing yard work, and always
serving others. These servant hands were never idle and were
instrumental in discipline but abounding in infinite love. She was the
hands and feet of Jesus, always serving others above herself. While
in Pineville, she tirelessly served in many capacities as a member of Cook
Memorial Baptist Church. Most recently, she was a member of First
Baptist Church of Princeton.
She was preceded in death by her loving
husband, Vernon B. Simmons; her parents, Aldah and Jordan Knowles; a
brother, Walter R. Knowles; sister, Patsy K. Akers; and niece, Karen S.
Hammond.
She is survived by her two children, Kevin Wynn
Simmons (Rachel) of Watkinsville, Georgia and Camela Simmons Williams
(James) of Kenbridge, VA.; and grandchildren, Michael Williams
–Milwaukee, WI, Luke Simmons –Washington, D.C., Elisabeth Simmons Quillian
(Matthew)-Salem, OR, Janna Williams Johnson (Kyle)-Midlothian, VA, and
John Mark Simmons–Henderson, NV.
She is also survived by niece, Dianne Knowles
Beck (Joe); and nephews, Larry Knowles (Sandy) and Barry Simmons (Janice)
along with loving relatives and friends who remember her as a
selfless woman who knew how to put a smile on others’ faces with her
quick wit and loving service.
Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on
Saturday, March 18, 2023 in the Maberry Funeral Home Chapel with Pastor
Angela Carr officiating. Interment will follow in Jacksonville Cemetery.
The family will receive friends from 10 a.m. until 11 a.m. prior to the
service at the funeral home.
In lieu of flowers, please consider donations
in memorial to Pineview Assisted Living Facility, 621 Academy Lane, South
Hill VA 23970.

d/o William Horace & Myrtle Tida (Deweese) Hale. [Hale_Hiram_Sarah]
Maurice Trent Slusher, 92, of Floyd, went to his heavenly home
on Wednesday, September 4, 2019. He was born on April 14, 1927, in Floyd
County, to George Lester and Callie Lillie Weeks Slusher. He was also
preceded in death by his sister, Betty Jean Mannon and his son-in-law, Seth
Wilson. He was devoted to his wife of sixty-nine years, Nadine Hale
Slusher. Also surviving are his son, Richard (Liang) Slusher; daughter,
Denise Wilson; granddaughters, Sarah Wilson (Travis Johnston) and Katie
Wilson; and great-granddaughters, Quinn and Maisie. He also leaves behind
his brother, Lane Slusher (Mina); sister, Jane S. Williams, as well as a
number of nieces, nephews, and cousins. Shortly after his graduation from
Floyd High School in 1944, Maurice and three friends enlisted in the Navy.
He was assigned to a yard mine sweeper and served sixteen months (February
19, 1945 to July 30, 1946). When he came home, he worked for the U.S.
Postal Service, beginning in 1947 as a clerk in the Floyd Post Office. From
1962 to 1988, he worked as a rural mail carrier, serving 500 households on
a ninety-three mile route. He was also elected as State Steward for the
Rural Letter Carriers of Virginia (1975-1988). As an avid stamp collector
he built a collection of post mark covers from community post offices in
Floyd County dating back to the early 1800s. He donated his collection of
postal memorabilia to the Floyd County Historical Society where a postal
display is presented. Maurice loved baseball and was one of the original
members of the Floyd Blue Sox who played in the Tri-County League beginning
in 1947. He umpired high school games, coached Little League teams, and
followed the game of baseball all his life. He enjoyed music, especially
bluegrass, and was a familiar face at festivals, fiddlers conventions, and
concerts at the Country Store. Maurice helped bring County Sales to Floyd
and worked to make the company a success. Maurice devoted his life to his
community, family, and farm. He and Nadine had been active members of Falling
Branch United Methodist Church since 1958, serving the church in all
capacities. He was a charter member of the Floyd County Historical Society
and freely shared his love and knowledge of county history. He restored,
maintained, and documented the Jacob Slusher and Weeks Cemeteries. Having
grown up tending the farm that had belonged to his great-great-great
grandfather, Maurice also continued farming and gardening on his own,
raising beef cattle and improving his land. Funeral services were held at 1
p.m. on Saturday, September 7, 2019, at the Maberry Funeral Home Chapel
with the Rev. Bill Schoeneman officiating. Interment followed in the
Jacksonville Cemetery with Military Rites by the Floyd VFW Post # 7854 and

active with various agricultural groups and was named Virginia Young

See the lilies

Evelyn Alice Terry Slusher, of Floyd, died peacefully at home on
Monday, November 21, 2011. She was born in Meadows of Dan, on May 23,
1925, the daughter of Elder Samuel Edwin and Dorothy Jessup Terry.
She was preceded in death by her husband of 52 years, Roger
Oliver Slusher, Jr; and by three of her brothers, Marvin, Reuben and
Wesley Terry.
Survivors include four children and their spouses, Roger and
Leslie Slusher, of Narvon, Pa, Alice Slusher, Terry and Katie Slusher,
George Slusher and Ann-Margaret Shortt, all of Floyd; five grandchildren
also survive, Dr. Corinne Medina and husband, Dr. Pablo Medina, Carl
Slusher, Ashley Slusher and fiance, Tony Kendrick, Reuben Slusher and
Daisy Slusher. Evelyn is also survived by five younger siblings and
spouses; sisters, Frances Terry Cock, Owen and Lois Terry Dalton; and
brothers, Sam and Julia Terry, Hubert and Vera Terry, David and Audrey
Terry. She is also survived by sisters-in-law, Nan Terry, Eloise Terry,
Odetta Terry, Neva Simmons, Ruth Ann Slusher and Judy McDanel.
The last surviving member of Conner's Grove Primitive Baptist
Church, Evelyn was baptized along with R.O. on January 22, 1967. Faith
was central to her life and she served the church as long as her health
allowed.
Music was an important part of her life. She enjoyed singing
and playing guitar as a member of the Over the Hill Gang. Evelyn's
teaching experiences ranged from two room school to high school.
Evelyn came to the farm on Rush Fork as a bride in 1954. She
loved hiking the hills, searching for quartz crystals and cleaning out
springheads. She built most of the rock structures in Slusher Park and
relished the hours spent maintaining her vegetable and flower gardens,
berry patches and lawn.
Family was all important to Evelyn. As the eldest daughter in
a family of nine children, she helped raise her youngest siblings and
remained very close to all of them. She treasured each of her
grandchildren. One of her greatest joys was hosting the extended Terry
family for camp out and reunion weekends in Slusher Park and watching
three more generations playing together there.
The family will always be grateful to Karyn Rainey for
filling Evelyn's final six years with love and laughter. Many thanks also
to Ada Belcher, Nanette West, Mandy Cromer, Loretta Callahan, Brenda
Atkins and Christy Roop, for the care and comfort they gave to her.

passed away at home on June 12, 2014. She was born at the home place on
Rush Fork on December 10, 1921, to Roger Oliver and Pearl Sutphin Slusher.
She and her five siblings grew up on the farm where she assisted three
generations of Slusher farmers. She was preceded in death by her parents;
her brother R.O. Slusher, Jr.; and her sisters Neva Slusher Simmons, Edith
Pearl Slusher, and Mary Lou Slusher Shelor. In addition, as a third
generation teacher, Ruth Ann graduated from Radford State Teachers College
and taught business classes for 47 years in the county. She was a member of
the Floyd County Retired Teachers. Ruth Ann had been an active member of
Willis United Methodist Church since the mid 1940s. She loved her church
and served there in many capacities, including being the treasurer for a
number of years. Gardening, knitting, sports and reading were among her
lifelong pleasures. She was happiest being with family and dear friends,
including those she was looking forward to seeing this weekend at their
74th Willis Class of 1940 reunion.
She is survived by her sister, Jewel Slusher McDanel as well as by the
Simmons, Slusher, McDanel and Shelor nieces, nephews; great and great-great
nieces and nephews and a number of cousins. For us, Ruth Ann will always be
the heart of our family.
Funeral service will be held 2:00 p.m. Saturday June 14, 2014 at the
Maberry Funeral Home Chapel with Rev. Darlene Marshall officiating.
Interment to follow at Jacksonville Cemetery. The family will receive friends
from noon to 2 p.m. prior to the service.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests any memorial donations be made to
the Willis United Methodist Church, 5671 Floyd, Hwy South, Willis, VA
24380.

Marie Spangler, never married d/o Charles Beahm &
Mary Catherine (Yopp) Spangler. [Spangler_William_Hannah]
On September 2, 2023, Marie Spangler passed away peacefully at
age 90 after a brief illness.
Marie was born, raised and had many wonderful memories of
growing up with her family in Floyd Virginia. She was born to
her parents, Mary Catherine and Charles Spangler. She was the
youngest of three siblings, her brothers being Charles Jr. and Jack (Murray
Jackson).
After graduating High School in 1951, at the age of 18, she
moved to Washington DC to work for the FBI. Five years later she
moved to the Naval Research Laboratory where she worked thirty six
additional years before retiring in 1992.
In 1963, Marie gave birth to her only son Ralph. She
raised him in a home filled with love and he is grateful that she was able
to spend the last several years living with him and his wife, Julie in
their home. Marie was a life-long crafter who enjoyed all forms of sewing,
crochet, quilting and needlepoint. After retiring she became a
doll maker, producing dozens, perhaps hundreds, of hand-made porcelain
dolls. She was very proud of the fact that her dolls (or babies
as she called them) began as mud and that she had a hand in almost every
aspect of bringing them to 'life' - from pouring to firing, painting and
finally creating custom outfits for each of them. In her later
years she also became a prolific quilter and was working on one the week
before she passed.
Marie is predeceased by her parents, Charles and Mary Cathrine
(Yopp) Spangler; her brothers, Charles Jr., and Jack and his wife, Bessie.
Marie is survived by her son, Ralph Roland, his wife Julie
Petrbok; and her sister-in-law Barbara Spangler. She was also
extremely close with all of her nieces and nephews, Sara Dulaney, Gary and
Julianne Spangler, Janet Branch, Karen Black and David and Lydean
Spangler. There was a special place in her heart for all of
their children and grandchildren as well.
Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Friday,
September 8, 2023 in the Maberry Funeral Home Chapel with Pastor Bob
McLavey officiating. Interment will follow in the Jacksonville Cemetery.
The family will receive friends from 5 p.m. until 7 p.m. on Thursday,
September 7, 2023 at the funeral home.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to
the Floyd County Humane Society, P.O. Box 862, Floyd, VA 24091.

Dr. C. M. Stigliman
Was born in Floyd County, Va., March 24th, 1833. He first attended the
"Old Field" schools of the county, afterwards the Floyd Institute
conducted by Professor Gannaway. He read medicine under Dr. Faywell Halden
and attended one course of lectures at the University of New York, and one
at the Medical College of Virginia, where he graduated in 1857. He then
returned to his native county where he commenced to practice his profession
which he followed continuously for 48 years. He was married in September,
1857 to Miss Ellen M. Shelor, a daughter of Rev. Thos. G. Shelor of the
Christian Church. His wife preceded him to the grave 16 years, dying in
1888. He was one of the charter members of the Medical Society of Virginia,
of which he was at one time Vice-President. He was a true Confederate
soldier, carrying the first Company from Floyd County as their captain. He
was also a staunch and life long democrat. No man has ever lived in Floyd
County who was more universally loved and respected, nor whose death was
more genuinely regretted. (Source: "Transactions of the Medical
Society of Virginia", October 24-28, 1905 contributed to FAG by Katie.

of January 16, 2008, Shirley finally rejoined Jack in God's kingdom.
Shirley Nola Witkoski Sweeney, 69, of Christiansburg, formerly of Floyd,
slipped into heavenly peace surrounded by family at Avant Rehab Center in
Roanoke.
Born December 22, 1938 in the state of Washington, Shirley was a wonderful
person who was loved by all she met, and she truly loved life. She lived
life to the fullest, and loved her cat, Boots like her child. She was a
devoted wife, and the most wonderful mother, sister, grandmother,
great-grandmother, and friend you could ever ask for.
Shirley was predeceased by her husband, Jack, her parents, Ben and Helen
Witkoski, a sister, Yvonne Braget, and a brother, Jerry Witkoski.
Left to cherish her memory are her daughters and son-in-law, Marla Melvin
of Christiansburg and Susan and Arlie Hill of Radford; her grandchildren
and spouses, Amy and Butch Cook of Fredericksburg, Shana and Brian Griffith
of Christiansburg, Daniel Hill of Radford, Kayla Melvin of Radford, and
Brandon Hill of Richmond; six and a half great-grandchildren, Madeline,
Jack, Emma and Lilly Cook, Onyia and William Griffith, and an unborn
great-grandson, Travis Mabe, who is due January 30; a special niece,
Deborah Baum of Floyd; her brother and sisters, Bernard Witkoski of South
Carolina, Cherie McKinnley of South Carolina, Marla Price of Washington
State, and Judy Hendricks of Washington State.
Along with many other family members who will miss her dearly, she is also
survived by her longtime friends and sisters-in-law, Pauline Sweeney and
Daphine Sowers.
Funeral services will be conducted 11 a.m. Saturday, January 19, 2008, at
Gardner Funeral Home Chapel, with the Reverend Graham Mitchell officiating.
Interment will follow at Jacksonville Cemetery.
Friends may call at Gardner Funeral Home on Friday after 10 a.m., where the
family will be from 6 to 8 p.m. The family expresses a special thank you to
Avant? of Roanoke for all of the care and support given to Shirley during
her stay there. Arrangements are being handled by Gardner Funeral Home,
Floyd.
