Karen Cyktor Adams
Spotsylvania
“Her time in Fredericksburg was spent raising her sons, serving in numerous ways to community causes (Squishy Face Crew, Lee’s Hill Community Association, Spotsylvania County, and the YMCA just to name a few), and playing tennis and pickleball. Karen was also an extensive traveler, taking trips with Rod, their family, and their many friends over the years. She was also an avid reader and a lover of her six cats and numerous foster kittens.”

“Wanda was an amazing soul that cared about others more than herself.”
Ronald Gary Hooe
Stafford
“Ronnie dedicated many years to the automotive industry, a lifelong passion that defined much of his work and joy. He owned and operated Hooe’s Automotive in Stafford, drove a rollback for the auto auction, and restored countless classic vehicles. He also founded the iconic Ho Ho Land in Stafford, Virginia, a beloved local tradition.”
“Dave enjoyed unique touristy family road trips and historic vacations. He loved to be creative. He was an avid woodworker, a closeted candle maker, an excellent baker, a fantastic cook, and a honey-do-list completer; especially if a new tool was a part of the deal. He also loved a good X-files conspiracy theory and was always up for a wonderfully awful B horror movie.
He was our family ‘Dogfather’ with a particular fondness for chihuahuas. However, his love extended to all animals, pre-marriage animals including snakes, parrots, ferrets, tropical fish, and dogs of all kinds. Dave was a family man that adored his loved ones, worked hard to provide, and always came through. He especially loved holiday celebrations and traditions. His lame dad jokes will be sorely missed.”
Virginia Mae Terry
Fredericksburg
“Her family is profoundly grateful for the life she gave them and the loving force she was in theirs. Virginia will be deeply missed and fondly remembered by all who knew her. Until we meet again, mom, please know how much we all love and miss you. And as in your words to us, ‘I love you, honey.’”
