Virginia Lynn DeBoer. Born September 30, 1974, in Kalamazoo, MI. She grew up at the DeBoer Family Farm, even though life gave her challenges, it was always home to her. She was employed by Ridderman and Sons, but her passion was Interior Painting. She also enjoyed crocheting, diamond art, doing her nails and getting her hair done by her daughter, Kailey. She was an avid rock and crystal enthusiast (not just the ones she could throw)
and loved dragons.

She cherished and enjoyed spending all her time with her granddaughter, River Rose very much. She talked about her everyday while she was lovingly cared for.

On Saturday, November 22, 2025, Virginia lost her very short battle to cancer. She will be missed by friends, family and all that knew her.

She is survived by her granddaughter: River Rose, her daughter: Kailey Ewing, nieces, and nephews along with other family members.

She was preceded in death by her father and her son. Per her wishes, cremation has taken place and there will be a Celebration of Life at a later date along with a private burial.
