Obituary
Barbara Ann Absher, 88, of North Chesterfield, VA went to be with the Lord on Friday, April 21, 2023. She was born on August 15, 1934, in Wise, Virginia to the late Bruce Allen and Ruby Ayers. She is also preceded in death by her brothers, Floyd Allen Bridges and Paul Eugene Parsons; sister, Linda Ayers Glenn; nephew, David W. Sale; son-in-law, Charles Roth; daughter-in-law, Darlene Absher; and brother-in-law, David S. Sale.
Our family lost a true matriarch this morning. A loving wife of 70 years, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, great great grandmother, sister and friend, she carried many titles proudly, Granny was the epitome of class and kindness. She would do whatever she needed to do for her family and always put everyone’s needs before her own. Granny held everyone together and showed her love for you freely and often. No matter what was going on with her she would welcome you with the best hugs and ask you how you were doing, she wanted to genuinely know that you were okay and well. Granny was strong and fought through some tough times with a smile on her face and with so much grace! To say we will miss her is an understatement, words just cannot do justice right now.
She is survived by her beloved husband of 70 years and 7 months, Robert Absher Sr.; daughters, Sharon Pittman (Raymond) and Sandra Roth; son, Robert J. Absher Jr. (Tricia); sisters, Betty Sale and Norma Ayers Frazier; grandsons, Raymond Pittman III (Diane), Jason Pittman (Vickie), Charles Roth III, and Robert Lee Roth (Chrissy); granddaughters, Harley Absher, Jeri Absher; seven great grandchildren; seven great great grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews.
The family will receive friends and family from 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm on Wednesday, April 26, 2023, at Morrissett Funeral & Cremation Service, 6500 Iron Bridge Road, North Chesterfield, VA 23234. Her funeral service will be held at 1:00 pm on Thursday, April 27, 2023, at the funeral home. Interment will be at Dale Memorial Park, 10201 Newby’s Bridge Road, Chesterfield, VA 23832 at 3:00 pm.
