Virginia Ann Shivers, age 79 of Leakesville, Mississippi went home to be with the Lord on Thursday May 19, 2022.
Mrs. Shivers served in the ministry aside her late husband of 47 years. Reverend Vernon and Mrs. Virginia traveled through the Bible Belt speaking the words of our Lord to the youth, the parents and elders of all communities. She loved to read her Bible, and spending time with her family was next to none. Some of her favorite pastimes included cooking for large church gatherings, or for family, and obsessing over her crossword puzzles. This helped keep her sharp and classy even in her older age.
She was preceded in death by her husband of 47 years, Rev. Vernon Douglas Shivers, her parents, James & Aline Moody, brothers, Tom, James & Lloyd Moody, sisters, Nell Andrews, Jimmy Coker & Carolyn Peacock.
