Continuously serving Kosciusko County since 1854
Virginia D. Myers, 85, passed away peacefully on Easter Sunday, April 5, 2026, at Brickyard Nursing Facility in Elkhart.
Born in Middle Creek, Ky., Virginia was the daughter of Carrie E. and Laura E. Fugitt Burke. She graduated from Pierceton High School.
In Warsaw, on May 1, 1960, Virginia married Robert “Bob” Myers and would welcome two children.
A devoted housewife and mother, she was a den mother for the Cub Scouts and Explorers. When the children were grown and out of the house, Virginia then began selling Avon and later working as a cashier for Kroger. She was a member of the Lions Club Eye Bank, the Ladies Axillary Post #49 and Country Bible Church of North Webster.
Virginia was a spunky spitfire with a quick wit. She was extremely loving and was the family glue. She enjoyed sharing her hobbies of gardening, baking, canning, embroidery, knitting and crocheting with her family and friends.
