Virginia Krivohlavek, of Dorchester, passed away Jan. 15, 2025, at the age of 90.
She was born Dec, 11, 1934, to Gladys (Culp) and Herbert McCormick in Fisher, Illinois. She ended up settling in Waverly and worked for Pat Ash, Inc., and Russell Stover’s candy company in Lincoln. Virginia’s life dramatically changed when she married Harold Krivohlavek, the love of her life, in 1968. Virginia was known for her excellent pies and beautiful oil paintings, but mostly for her kindness, willingness to help others, and especially the love she poured into her husband and family.
She is survived by her children, SueAnn Shaw of Oakdale, Keith Spanyers and Pam Carlin, both of Dorchester, and Karen (Scott) Wiles of Lincoln; and 28 grandchildren.
A family and community fellowship will be Friday, Feb. 28, at 6 p.m. at the Dorchester American Legion. Virginia’s Celebration of Life will be Saturday, March 1, at 10:30 a.m. at Calvary Community Church, 4400 N First St, Lincoln.
