Dessie at her home in Bland, VA

Eddie Myers, Audella Evans, and Dessie Myers

Dessie Myers was our Momma's close friend. And after Momma went to Heaven, she became our close friend, too. She was a true Christian lady - always the same, always living in a way that honored Jesus, always talking about Jesus, and she was a prayer warrior! I loved to hear her pray! She talked to Jesus like she was talking to an old friend - so real and so precious!

She is rejoicing at the Throne of Grace with her husband and her Christian friends that are there - and she is...

We loved Sister Myers. She was my Sunday School teacher and my pastor's wife when I was saved. Her and Brother Myers were a great encouragement to me when I was a young Christian. She is now home with the Lord!

Our prayers for the family. We’ve got more to go to heaven for loved ones, friends, family now in the presence of the LORD. Rest in peace Sis. Myers. See you soonJesus is coming and the dead in Christ shall rise first, then we that are in Christ shall rise together with them to meet the LORD in the air, and so shall we ever be with the LORD. Comfort one another with these words.

Dessie's Obituary

DESSIE MARIE  WEBB MYERS,92 of Bland, VA, went home to be with the Lord she served faithfully on Monday, July 21, 2025 at Pulaski Health and Rehabilitation Center. She was born August 5, 1932 at Rock, WV, the daughter of the late Floyd & Thelma Webb.

Dessie was a member of Indian Valley Church of God. Most recently, she attended church at the Green Valley Community Church the past few years, as her driving restrictions and health issues caused her to stay closer to home. She and her husband ministered together for many years throughout the valley.  She spent countless hours serving the Lord and considered church her life.

Dessie was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and friend, but she will be remembered most for her love of her special grandchildren and precious great-grandchildren.  She will be greatly missed by those who loved her.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Floyd  Edward & Thelma Mae Cochran Webb, her husband of 62 years, Rev. William Oliver Myers, her brothers, Richard Webb and Don Webb, an infant brother, Delbert Edward Webb and a precious grandson, TSGT Phillip Myers.

Left to cherish are her sons & daughters-in-law, William Lavoy & Judy Myers, Eddie & Darla Myers and Keith & Nikki Myers; 6 special grandchildren; 15 precious great-grandchildren; her God-daughter, Miranda Cooper; her brothers & sisters-in-law, Carless & Marilyn Webb, Louis & Alice Webb, Annette Webb and Shirley Webb; her sister & brother-in-law, Patricia & Ross Martin; a host of nieces and nephews, many friends and brothers and sisters in Christ; and her church families.

Funeral services will be held Saturday July 26, 2025 at 2:00 P.M. at the Bastian Church of God with Rev. John Blessing and Rev. Kenneth Poston officiating. Burial will follow in the Myers Cemetery.  

The family will receive friends at the church from 12:00 P.M. until service time, 2:00 P.M.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial donations be made in Dessie’s honor to the Myers Cemetery.
