Mrs. Anne Elmore Floyd, 91, died on April 2, 2020, at Commonwealth Senior Living, in Onancock. She was born in Painter and was a resident of Machipongo.
Anne was predeceased by her parents, Charles T. Elmore and Leonie Hughes Elmore; her husband, Richard S. Floyd III; her sister, Margaret E. Lankford, and brothers, Charles T. Elmore Jr. and D. Page Elmore.
She is survived by her children, Mary Anne F. Davis (Jim), Charles R. Floyd (Kathryn), William S. Floyd (Brenda), and John E. Floyd; her grandchildren, Mark B. Sherkey Jr. (Krista), Anne Marie S. Bott (Wescott), Jennifer Landa, Lori F. Miller (Stuart), Charlie Floyd, Julia Meirer, Anna Meirer, Will Floyd (Megan), and Jill Floyd; and 12 great-grandchildren.
Anne was educated at Northampton Accomack Memorial Hospital School of Nursing (LPN) and worked at Shore Memorial Hospital (NAMH) for 25 years as a nurse and nuclear medicine technician.
She was a very active member of Johnson’s United Methodist Church, JUMW (past president), and Homemakers’ Club. Anne was an avid bridge player, antique collector, and jigsaw puzzler.
Entertaining family and friends for holidays and special occasions was her specialty. As a mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother she always encouraged us to do our best, keep a smile on our faces, have a positive attitude, and help others.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Johnson’s United Methodist Church, in care of Mrs. Marge Kacik, 12337 Trout Lane, Machipongo, VA 23405.
A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
