Obituary

Annabelle Evelyn Elizabeth Ozmore, 22, of Chester, VA went to be with the Lord on Friday, August 18, 2023. She was born on November 13, 2000 in Chesterfield, Virginia to Melissa Lee Mayberry and Forrest Hamilton Ozmore. Annabelle was preceded in death by her uncle, Ronald Lee Mayberry, Jr.; great grandmothers, Rachel Elizabeth Waldrop and Evelyn Marie Gwaltney; and great grandfathers, Herbert Nelson Waldrop and John Coleman Gwaltney.

Annabelle was such an amazing, beautiful daughter, granddaughter, best friend, coworker, a kind, caring, loving soul! She loved writing letters to people especially in their time of need, journaling, listening to rock music, and creating beautiful artwork. She loved so hard, animals and people alike (especially her dog Pallas and guinea pig Echo). She was always nurturing and highly empathetic. She loved whole heartedly! She was very protective over her mom and of her family! Like the song says we can only imagine what you’re seeing right now in heaven and how amazing it must be to see Jesus! Her family and friends loved her more than anything in this whole world! We know 100% we’ll see you again because of the hope we have in Jesus! Until we see you again, (because this is only goodbye for now) keep your uncle Ronnie company. We love you so much Annabelle!

 She is survived by her mother, Melissa Lee Mayberry (Joel Million); father, Forrest Hamilton Ozmore (Molly Ford); maternal grandparents, Pamela Mayberry and Ronald Mayberry, Sr; paternal grandparents, David Ozmore (Sherrie) and Janita Gwaltney; and numerous extended family.
