  • Notes 
    • Virginia (Ginny] Shields passed away peacefully December 26, 2020 at the Inn at Chapel Grove, Heath, Ohio. Ginny is the daughter of Donald H. and Dorothy (Murdock) Carter, born March 10, 1927 in Hornell, New York. She was 93 years old.
      Ginny was a graduate of Hornell High School, class of 1945 and went on to study at Bryant-Stratton College of Busines in Buffalo New York. While attending college there she met and married the Navy submarine sailor of her dreams, Edgar A. Shields. Together they made their home in Hornell NY and raised their three children, Donna Sullivan of Palm Springs California, Edward A. (Cathy) Shields of Key West Florida and Paula (Timothy) Clark Heath Ohio.
      In 1964, they moved to Heath Ohio where Ginny was employed with Sears and Roebuck Company in the customer service department for 30 years. Ginny enjoyed being outdoors, and all the activities that nature had to offer, such as camping, golfing, swimming and especially ice skating as a child growing up in New York.
      Once retired, Ginny and Ed moved to The Villages in Florida where they would enjoy several more years together. After the passing of her beloved husband, she would return to Heath Ohio where she was able to be closer to her daughter Paula, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Family was very important to Ginny and she was able to enjoy many of the events her family was involved in. Together the children learned what it means to be a part of a family of multi generations and to support and love each other unconditionally.
      Ginny had a one-of-a-kind sense of humor, was quick witted, funny, feisty, always laughing and quick with a quip. When life?s perils had no answer, she would always reply ?It is what it is?.
      93 years leaves behind a vast cast of family members who loved her. In addition to her children, she leaves behind a brother, a sister, seven grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren and two great-great grandchildren.
      Virginia will be reunited with her sailor once again, at later date in the Bushnell National Cemetery in Florida.
      The Heath Chapel of Henderson-Van Atta-Stickle Funeral & Cremation Service, 1249 Hebron Road, Heath is assisting the Shields family with the cremation.
