Virginia Ruth Lilly Rorrer, 100, of Lindside, WV, departed this life Wednesday, June 9, 2021, at Giles Hospital. Virginia was born October 24, 1920, in Summers County, W.V. She was the daughter of Ballard Chapman Lilly and Mary Magdalene Sweeney Lilly. Virginia was a member for many years at Lindside Christian Church. She was also a member of the Lindside Community Choir. Virginia loved all her church family dearly just as she loved the Lord faithfully. A hundred year legacy of honesty, strength, and grace will not be forgotten.
Virginia was preceded in death by her parents, many siblings, her husband Joel T. “Drappy” Rorrer, and her beloved granddaughter, April Dawn Rorrer Hill. Virginia is survived by her only son and daughter in law, Thomas and Wanda Rorrer, of Peterstown; Two Brothers, Jimmy Lilly (Lakeland, FL); Shirley Lilly (Clearwater, FL); Grandaughter Sheila Rorrer Carder (John); Grandson Tony Rorrer (Kimberly); Great Grandaughters Amanda Carder Henegar (Tom); Taylor Cumbee Coulter (Cody); Great Grandson Wyatt Rorrer; Great Great Grandchildren: Jayden Miller, Bryson Spicer, Brody Spicer, Khloe Coulter, and Emma Coulter. Families that love beyond this world cannot be separated by it. Death cannot kill love that never dies. She also leaves behind many nieces and nephews she adored; treasured friends Brenda Crawford & Pat Harvey, and special caregiver Debbie Bradley.
To have been blessed to have Ginny as a mother, grandmother, great grandmother, aunt, cousin or friend was a blessing as well as an honor. The best stories and lessons we will carry with us came from our humble matriarch on a front porch swing. She taught us all that no matter what challenges we must keep our faith in the Lord.
