March 24, 1934 - April 3, 2025
Mrs. Virginia E. Pabst, a beloved resident of Mountain Home, Arkansas, peacefully passed away on Thursday, April 3, 2025, at the age of 91. Born on March 24, 1934, in Chicago, IL, to Elmer and Eva (Johnson) Crum, Virginia dedicated her life to caring for others as a nurse, a profession she pursued diligently until her relocation to Mountain Home, where she continued to serve as a devoted traveling home nurse.
Upon retiring, Virginia indulged her passions for photography and travel, enriching her life with new experiences and capturing the beauty she encountered through her lens. Her legacy of compassion and creativity will forever inspire those who knew and loved her.
Virginia is survived by her loving daughters, Judith Kenning and Deborah Renaud, her grandchildren Brian, Steven, Clifford, Kevin, and Jennifer, her great-grandchildren Jacob, Clark, Cooper, Stanley, Penelope, Arianna, Julissa, Giovanni, Carissa, and Jeremy, and her great-great-granddaughter Leilani. She is preceded in death by her parents, her husband, and one brother.
A graveside service to honor Virginia's life will be held at 11:00 am on Wednesday, April 16, at Baxter Memorial Gardens. Her memory will forever remain in the hearts of those who cherished her.
To all of Virginia's family,
We are so sorry for your loss. We knew Virginia through the Historical Society. May she rest in peace.
With deepest sympathy,
Mike and Dianna Roller
Virginia was a member of the Baxter County Historical Society and often helped us with our events. She and I had so much fun decorating the Casey House for Trick or Treat at the Casey House. She would dress up in her lion costume and entertain the Trick or Treaters with creative tales of past inhabitants of the Casey house. I sure wish I had videoed her! The last time I decorated it she was unable to help me so I videoed the walking broom I had purchased and showed it to her. She really missed telling her tales to the kids. She was so gifted. I will always think of her every Halloween when I am at the Casey House. Thank you, Virginia, for your friendship.
My deepest sympathy to you all. I got to know Virginia through Red Hats, she was a fun loving gal, and so interesting to talk with. She had much to offer from all her travels. May God hold you all in his loving arms as he's holding Virg now. Our Red Hat group really missed her these past couple of years when she couldn't join us any longer. Rest in peace my friend.
Knew her through my husband, a member of the stamp club...lots of fun times...
