Vlasits, Marjorie "Margie" Jeanne (Howard)

May 1, 1947 - March 3, 2024

Marjorie Jeanne Howard Vlasits (Margie), 76, died peacefully, surrounded with love on Sunday, March 3, 2024, at her home in Keezletown, VA, after a 19-year battle with multiple myeloma. She fought hard and surpassed all expectations. Her rest is well earned.

Margie was born May 1, 1947, in Sayre, PA, the second child of Francis William Howard and Mary “Eloise” (Powers) Howard (both deceased). Margie is survived by her siblings: sister, Mary Frances Howard and brothers; Paul Alan Howard (Maggie DiSandro) and William Reid Howard (Stephanie Howard).

Margie graduated from Bradford High School (Bradford, PA) in 1965. She graduated from Mansfield State College in 1970 with a degree in home economics. Mansfield is where she met Guy Vlasits. They married on July 27, 1968 and were married for 55 years. They settled in the southern tier of New York where they raised their three children; Jeanine Marie Underwood (Donnie Underwood), Stacy Guy Vlasits (Jennifer Graber) and Julie Joy Westfall (Michael Westfall) in addition to 11 foster children and innumerable “bonus” children. If someone was hurting or in need of “momming,” Margie was there and ready to embrace them as one of her own.

In 1983, Margie took a job working at HELPLINE, a phone line for people in crisis in Corning, NY. Margie was an active participant in Corning Community Mennonite Fellowship and the Voluntary Service Coordinator for Mennonite Voluntary Service in Corning, NY.

Margie and family moved to Virginia in 1989. Margie worked part time at Choice Books and Mennonite Media. She was an active participant in the Family of Hope House Church.

Margie was an avid gardener, home decorator, seamstress, wallpaper hanger, baker, and cook. She loved travel, exploring, nature, hiking, art, history and music. She was an avid reader and absorber of information. She loved connecting with people of all countries and cultures.

In 2003, Margie opened a bed and breakfast in her home at The Old Massanutten Lodge. She designed and decorated three beautiful rooms and then welcomed people into her dining room to experience her gourmet breakfasts. This was her passion for 14 years and when she sold the Lodge and downsized to the house in the field where she continued to welcome guests into her two Airbnb rooms. Her last gracious guest checked out of the B&B a few days before Margie’s death.

Margie's passion for her grandchildren and her love of gardening were often brought together in tractor rides, digging in the dirt and examining the wonders of the natural world.

Margie (Mimi) is beloved by her grandchildren; Sabrina Sonifrank (Benny James Sonifrank, III “BJ”), Tanner Westfall, Antonia Underwood, Alex Underwood, Martin Vlasits, Sasha M. Vlasits and her great grandson, “Ben” Benny James Sonifrank, IV.

Margie is also survived by numerous beloved nieces and nephews, foster children and chosen family and friends.

A Celebration of Life is planned at 2:00 p.m., on Saturday, April 27, 2024, at The Barn at Klines Mill, 5379 Klines Mill Road, Linville, VA 22834. The celebration will be conducted outside, weather permitting.

Nelson was born in Muskegon Heights, Michigan on March 7, 1928, the son of Osee O. and Vivian Viola (Nelson) Waybill. When Nelson was age four, his father died from tuberculosis, and his mother relocated the family to her home town of White Cloud, Michigan, where Nelson grew up.

After attending Goshen College for one year, Nelson served with the Mennonite Central Committee PAX program in Europe from 1952-1954, building homes for refugees and doing flood clean-up in Holland.  While working in Holland, he first became acquainted with Marjorie A. Yoder, who was volunteering in the work camp as part of a student tour experience.
 
On August 18, 1956 Nelson and Marjorie were married. Nelson graduated from Goshen College in 1958. He accepted a position with the Mennonite Publishing House in Scottdale, PA, serving until 1996 as Director of Personnel and Church and Community Service.

Nelson and Marjorie were actively involved in Kingview Mennonite Church, where they were members for 41 years. In March, 2000, Nelson and Marjorie moved to VMRC and quickly settled into their new community. They became members of Lindale Mennonite Church.

Nelson was exceedingly kind, with a smile for all and a dry wit. He had many diverse interests. He enjoyed singing, acting, and writing. He participated in the Heritage Singers productions in Scottdale and wrote two of their plays.  While living in Harrisonburg, he was an active member of the Rockingham Male Chorus. He continued to enjoy writing, authoring 5 volumes of poetry, skits, and short stories during his years at VMRC.

Nelson and Marjorie were married for 68 years. They enjoyed gardening, daily walks, and volunteering together. They especially loved exploring new places, and traveled extensively in their RV (“the little house”) across the United States and Canada.   Above all, they treasured time with their children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and friends.

Weaver, Samuel Horton

May 1, 1930 - February 17, 2023

With great sadness as well as great joy, the family of Samuel Horton Weaver announces that he went to be with The Lord on Friday, February 17, 2023. He passed away peacefully at home with family in The Woodlands, Texas at age 92.

Sam was born on May 1, 1930 in Champaign, Illinois to Findley and Adela (nee St. Clair) Weaver. He was a life-long student and received a bachelor’s degree in history from Cambridge University in London, England, a Master’s degree in history from Columbia University and a doctorate in American history from American University in Washington, DC, and a Master’s in Business Administration from Ohio University.

Much of Sam’s early career was spent working in various capacities for the U.S. government, including the Library of Congress in Washington, DC. He started working for the U.S. Foreign Service in 1955 and was stationed at the U.S. embassy in Ecuador from 1958-1960 and in Brazil from 1961-1963, then in the Latin American section of the Bureau of Intelligence and Research at the U. S. State Department. Sam taught at Ohio University Eastern campus in St. Clairsville, Ohio from 1969-1994, then did part-time teaching until 2002, when he finally retired. He initially taught American history, but also taught business and accounting courses. He also did occasional work as a Certified Public Accountant.

Sam married Helen Wiens in 1967 in Washington, DC. They moved to St. Clairsville and lived there for 25 years while raising 2 boys. After Sam retired from full-time teaching at Ohio University, he and Helen moved to Harrisonburg, Virginia in the Shenandoah Valley. They were married for 45 years until Helen’s death in 2012. Sam met Margaret B. Gibson in 2015 and after a yearlong courtship they were married in October 2016 in The Woodlands, Texas. They enjoyed 6 years together until Margaret’s death in July 2022.

Hiking, canoeing, and gardening were some of the outdoor activities that Sam enjoyed, especially with family. His principal hobby was researching family history, including writing several articles about the Weaver and Wiens families. He accessed genealogical information on trips to the Library of Congress or National Archives, and later by using a computer to access the internet. Sam also enjoyed traveling, spending time with family and friends, and gave generously of his time to the churches and communities to which he belonged throughout his life.

Sam was preceded in death by his parents, Findley and Adela Weaver, and his sisters Margaret Weaver and Marian Cook.

Sam is survived by his sons, Michael Weaver (Ivy Moore) in The Woodlands, TX and Matt Weaver in Plano, TX. Grandchildren are Nicholas and MacKenzie Weaver in The Woodlands, TX. His step-children are Richard Gibson in Port Orange, FL, Mike Gibson (Carol) in Brooksville, FL, and Gina Growden (Dana) in Tomball, TX.
