Virginia A. Luckhart Mann, age 102, went to be with the Lord on January 22, 2010. She was born in Saltcreek Twp. on March 1, 1907 to Orestes and Nellie Mowery. She loved to laugh, share stories with her grandchildren, and she was always ready for an adventure. Virginia spent the last years of her life at Logan Elm Healthcare Center and it was said that every time the key to the nursing home van was placed in the ignition...Virginia was one of the first to board to go and enjoy wherever the van was going.
During her life,Virginia was a member of the Eastern Star, Grange, and the Farm Bureau and she enjoyed being part of these fine groups.
After she turned 100 years of age, she was honored to throw out the first pitch of the season for the Chillicothe Paints Baseball team. She was thrilled to do that.
She was preceded in death by her parents, first husband Wayne Luckhart, second husband Rev. Robert Mann, and son Max Luckhart.
Virginia is survived by her son David (Mary) Luckhart, step children, Russ (Helen) Mann, and Mildred Smith; grandchildren, Diane Luckhart, Dacia (Ty) Ankrom, Brent (Debra) Luckhart, Brad (Margie) Luckhart, Tania Barnhart, Marlon (Brenda) Luckhart, and Krystal Jacobs, 15 great grandchildren, and 7 great great grandchildren.
The family would like to thank the staff of Logan Elm Healthcare Center for the great care they provided Virginia.
A service was held at 11:00 am on Tuesday January 26, 2010 at St. Jacobs Evangelical Lutheran Church in Tarlton, Ohio. Virginia and her first husband Wayne were the first couple to marry in this church. A large crowd of 102 packed into the church on a cold snowy day, which was a testament to the character of this fine Christian lady whom the Lord had blessed with a long and fruitful life.
The service was presided over by Rev. John Michels with Rev. Kate Crecelius assisting. Following the graveside service at Tarlton Cemetery, the family invited all to share a meal with them in the church basement. The meal was provided by and served by the ladies of the church and all attending complimented the ladies for such a fine meal and caring service.
Family received friends begining one hour prior to the service, where sounds of laughter and the sharing of wonderful stories about Virginia could be heard among the occasional tears and hugs shared with the family.
Arrangements were entrusted to Defenbaugh-Wise-Schoedinger Funeral Service, who did a fine job providing loving care for Virginia.

"Fill not your hearts with pain and sorrow,
but remember me in every tomorrow.
Remember the joy, the laughter, the smiles,
I've only gone to rest a little while.
Although my leaving causes pain and grief,
my going has eased my hurt and given me relief.
So dry your eyes and remember me,
not as I am now, but as I used to be.
Because, I will remember you all and
look on with a smile. Understand, in your heart,
I've only gone to rest a little while.
As long as I have the love of each of you,
I can live my life in the hearts of all of you."
