Virginia June Killing

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Virginia June Killing, who left us on April 23, 2023, at the age of 97. Virginia was born on July 17, 1925, in Troy, Michigan to Richard and Jennie Welch. She was a lifelong resident of Troy and was loved and respected by her community.
Virginia was a devout member of the Big Beaver United Methodist Church for many years, where she served as the oldest member of the congregation. She was a dedicated volunteer for the church's bereavement luncheons, and her kind and caring nature was always appreciated by those who attended. Additionally, Virginia volunteered for many years at the City of Troy Polling Centers.
In her spare time, Virginia enjoyed reading, bowling, and swimming. She loved spending time at her family's cottage in Caseville, MI, where she could relax and unwind. Virginia had a special place in her heart for her grandchildren and friends and always cherished the time she spent with them.
