Larkin A. Woolfrey Larkin A. Woolfrey died at the age of 65 surrounded by family and friends on Thursday, June 7, 2012, at the University of Virginia Transitional Care Hospital. He was born on January 25, 1947, in Orange, Virginia, to the late Larkin A. Woolfrey Sr.

Larkin is survived by his step father, James Davis and his mother, Earlene Davis of Crozet.

He is also survived by his loving wife, Linda from Crozet. She was his best friend, soul mate and caregiver. They were married for 31 years of May 23, 2012.

His is also survived by three sisters, Priscilla Bowman and her husband, Gary, of Ruckersville, Judy Steele of Palm Beach, Florida, and Rebecca "Becky" Davis of Richmond; two brothers, Billy Davis and his wife, Jenny, of Afton, and Mike Davis and his wife, Karen, of Crozet; three nephews, Troy Zeller, Mike Davis and Cody Davis; four nieces Wendy Zeller, Gabrielle Chavigny, Krissy Strickler and Ashley Moore; four great-nieces, Taylor, Briana, Hayley, Hannah; a great-niece to be born in September; and a great-nephew, Aidan.

Larkin attended Mount Moriah United Methodist Church in White Hall. He loved attending the Friendship Sunday School Class.

Larkin loved the simple things in life: going out to eat with his wife and family, spending time at home with his wife and his little four legged buddy Jazzie. Jazzie passed away on June 1, 2012. Larkin loved country music, blue grass, gospel music. His favorite muscle car was the Pontiac GTO.

Some of the best years of Larkin's life were following his nephew Cody in sports. He loved attending and watching Cody play football, basketball and baseball.

His wife and family would like to thank all the doctors and staff at the University of Virginia Transitional Care Hospital for the excellent care and friendship during the past four months of Larkin's life. A special thank you to Tracy Barnett for taking care of our little dog Jazzie for the past five months.

Larkin is loved very much and will be greatly missed!

A Sister's Love

A sister's love never dies,
God, if my brother needs it,
take my breath from me.

If he needs my heart,
He's got it.

My soul wonders where this goes
all the love that he gave.
All the laughter that he made.
This soul is kind and giving.
There is only one of you.

I love my God for making you first.
He knew I needed you as a brother
so strong and loving.

When those gates open, they will
light the darkness and make it bright.
The angels will sing 'Oh what a Night'.

I love you when we are apart.
I love you when we are together.
My eyes are wide open looking
and waiting for that smile.

I will remember your loving Big heart.
See you will never be gone, because
I won't let you!

A Sister's Love Never Dies

Love Always,
Your Sister, Judy
