VERA ELIZABETH SHIFFLETT
April 22, 1926 — August
12, 2024
The Batten Funeral Home, Ruckersville, VA
Mt. Crawford -- With Thanks and
Loving Memories of our Mom, Vera Elizabeth Shifflett.
Momma was born on April
22, 1926 in Albemarle County, Virgina. She passed on to her home in Heaven on
August 12, 2024 at the age of 98. She was the middle daughter of the late Elmer
Thomas Shifflett and Anna P. Shifflett. She was also preceded in death by her
husband John C. Shifflett, her 2nd husband Medford Hammon and her sisters,
Virginia Moser Eddins and Louise Shifflett and an infant brother that she never
knew. She is survived by so many in her family who love her dearly: her
children; Linda Bowers, Barbara Shifflett and Bruce Shifflett, along with a
daughter-in-law Susan Harkness-Shifflett and her Son-In-Law Bobby Bowers, both
of whom she loved as her very own. She leaves 5 grandchildren, Tom Bowers and
wife Tonya, Christin Allen and husband Shawn, Ginny Bowman and husband Brandon:
Christopher Shifflett and wife Caitlin and Mary Shifflett. She leaves 13
great-grandchildren and four great-great-grandsons. We were so blessed to be
able to have 5 generations. We want to acknowledge all the love and care that
she received from the staff at the Renaissance Senior Living in Stanardsville.
They were more than just caregivers to her; they became her family, and she
loved them so much. They walked with Momma and us through her final days. Momma
had so many stories to share with us. She grew up during the Great Depression
but in spite of not having a lot for themselves, she said her Momma and Daddy
always worked hard and shared whatever they had with extended family and the
neighbors in need all around them. She became a Christian in her early 30's. She
always said that her life radically changed that day and that she never looked
back. If Momma was writing this, she would say that her greatest joy and the
thing in life that she is most proud of would be her family. There was nothing
on earth that mattered more to her than each of us. Whatever she decided to do,
she did with excellence. She was fiercely competitive, especially when it came
to playing cards. She loved dancing. One of my earliest memories is of her and
Grandma dancing around in the kitchen. She joined a square dance club after she
retired and she had a whole closet overflowing with those colorful, squaredance
dresses and puffy crinnilins. Her love of basketball began when she was Captain
of the girls team at Broadus Wood High School in Earlysville and she continued
loving that sport for the rest of her life, as a faithful UVA/ACC fan. She
followed the team everywhere to tournaments and playoffs and championships. When
she was no longer able to go to the games, she would cheer them on from the
recliner. She worked for many years at The Martha Jefferson House in
Charlottesville, as their Food Service Manager, till she retired at 70. She
loved the residents and especially each one of her staff, whom she considered
more like friends and family than just coworkers. Our Mother was a strong,
feisty, beautiful, caring woman. Her legacy to all of us is her perseverance,
her tenacity and her thankful heart. She taught us to always do things well and
to care about others. That's the way she lived and that's the way she loved each
of us. When we remember her...and we always will, we will know that we w?re
truly blessed to be her kids.
We love you, Momma.
Linda, Barbara and Bruce
There will be a graveside service at Holly Memorial Gardens on Tuesday, August
20th at 10am. In lieu of flowers, you may honor her with a donation to Medi
Hospice of Charlottesville, who compassionately cared for her and her family
through those last hours or donate to your favorite charity. Arrangements are
entrusted to Batten Funeral Home of Ruckersville, Virginia.

others first and foremost, never turning away from an opportunity to help a

Virginia Lee Shifflett, beloved wife,mother and grandmother, passed away
Saturday Aug. 29 at the Anne Arundel Medical Center. She was 84 years old.
Virginia, known to her friends as Ginny, was a military wife who loved to
volunteer, travel and spend time with her grandchildren. She was born Virginia
Lee Pryor on Oct. 6, 1935 in Greenfield, Ohio. She met her husband Walter on a
blind date and moved with him to their first duty station in New York shortly
after they were married in 1953 Ginny loved being a military wife and lived
abroad in Germany as well as in more than 10 states during their time in the
service. In each place she called home she spent countless hours volunteering in
her community and at church, especially with children's ministries. She
eventually settled in Maryland and worked for 25 years as a family practice
medical records administrator at Andrews Air Force Base. She was an avid
traveler and continued to explore new parts of the world well into her 80s. She
took several trips to Europe as well as places like China, New Zealand and the
Amazon RainForest. She enjoyed filling photo books with pictures of her
destinations and looking for trinkets for her grandchildren to bring back with
her. In 2019 she moved to the Ginger Cove senior living center and quickly
became a part of the community. She loved meeting new people and had frequent
dinners with friends. Always the volunteer, she also spent time working in the
community boutique. More than anything else, Ginny loved being a grandmother.
She was always available for a phone call and a loaf of banana bread, and had a
greeting card for every occasion. Her pies were her specialty, and they received
rave reviews from friends and family. She particularly loved baking with her
grandchildren, who learned a lot from her but will never make her recipes as
well as she could. Everyone who knew her will miss her kind, thoughtful spirit
and quick-witted sense of humor. She is survived by her husband, Walter, four
children and 13 grandchildren. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations

was actually a first cousin (son of Mack's brother Emanuel Shifflett) that had
lived with them when he was young. Because of that he seemed more like a brother.
