Virginia Wolfe
March 31, 1955 – August 1, 2025
With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Virginia Wolfe, who departed this life on August 1, 2025, at the age of 70.
Born on March 31, 1955, Virginia was a beloved daughter of the late Bill and Ethel Gambel. A woman of compassion and quiet strength, she devoted her life to caring for others-both in her professional career and at home. Virginia was a retired Registered Nurse, whose kindness and dedication touched countless lives.
Virginia was preceded in death by her loving husband, Donnie Wolfe. They were married for 42 years and shared a life full of deep love and commitment. She is survived by their son, William Wolfe, his wife Sara, and their son, Hunter Wolfe-Virginia's cherished grandson and greatest joy. She is also survived by her stepchildren, Travis Merrell (Robin) and Tracie Walker (Kevin), who held a special place in her heart.
Virginia is also survived by her twin sister, Regina Noonan (Rob), and her brothers Stan Gambel (Debbie), Glenn Gambel (Ange), and Clayton Gambel (Patrick). She was a beloved aunt to many nieces and nephews: Mandy Joseph (Clint), Holly Bryant (Terry), Jason Harmon (Tonya), Adam Harmon (Sandy), Shawn Gambel (Lisa), Tony Gambel (Jessica), Missy, Jennifer, PJ Gambel, and Wesley Gambel.
She is also survived by her sisters-in-law, June Harman and Diane McMurray. Diane's children, Paula Riffe and William Miller (Kristyna), were also very special to Virginia.
A lifelong animal lover, Virginia found joy and comfort in the companionship of her dog, Buttercup, and her many cats over the years. She was also an enthusiastic sports fan, cheering on the Kentucky Wildcats and the Cincinnati Reds with unwavering loyalty.
Virginia will be remembered for her gentle heart, her deep love for her family and animals, and her dedication to helping others. Her warm spirit, sense of humor, and quiet presence will be deeply missed.
A private family service will be held to honor her memory. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you share a kind word, a warm memory, or a moment of joy with someone you love-just as Virginia always did.
Care Cremation and Funeral Service is honored to be entrusted with final care.
