Virginia Enger

September 28, 1943 - February 7, 2021

On February 7th, 2021 Virginia Powell Enger passed away in her sleep. Virginia, or Sissy as she was also known, was 77 years old. She was a lifelong resident of Juliustown, where she was surrounded by many family members on Main Street. Virginia had a successful career managing a doctor’s practice, from which she retired from. In her retirement she could finally take care of, and love her cats, do her gardening, and play and visit with her grandchildren. Virginia was the mother of three lovely daughters, and “Grammy” to 6 grandchildren. She always provided support and much love for her family. Sadly, Mom battled Dementia/Alzheimer’s in her last years of life. She never stopped fighting, often battling with the nurses, and walking all night long with her wheelchair. The amazing people at the Masonic Home were always there for her and Mom loved them! For that we will be eternally grateful to them! She also survived the Coronavirus battle twice this past year. No matter how sick she truly was in the end, she was always bound and determined to do things her way. Through her, we know what resilience and perseverance truly look like. Just because she is no longer here with us doesn’t mean she lost her fight. Virginia is survived by her daughters- Theresa Brenner Ritter and husband Kevin J. Ritter, Sherry Jayne Sano, and Karen Miller and husband Mike Miller. She is also survived by her cherished grandchildren- Paul Brenner, Ryan Miller, Leah and Christopher Beard, Marc and Kerry Sano, Chase Miller, and Anthony Sano. Sissy is also survived by her sister, Judy Chase and husband Mike. The family invites you to join them for a memorial service at Perinchief’s Funeral Home on Wednesday from 10:00am-11:30am. All are welcome.
