| Virginia “Virgie” Fosdick |
| A Story of Love… This story begins June 21st, 1924 when Virgie was born, the daughter of Roy Leon Kelley and Olive Agnes Wright Kelley in Caribou, Maine. She with her older sister Hazel, and her younger brother Gary were raised in a loving, God fearing, Christian home. They regularly accompanied their mother to church and remained actively involved in church throughout her childhood and completion of high school. During this period of her life she developed into a truly beautiful woman. She was known for her love of gospel music and continued to use her God given voice her entire lifetime to influence her children, family and friends, in church, prayer meetings, and most importantly, at home. She met and married her one true love, her "Darlin" Roger Deforest Fosdick, a handsome young Airmen in the United States Air Force, on August 6th, 1959. Together they raised eight sons, Richard, Michael, Jeffrey, Stephen, Kevin, Roger II, Roy, and Maurice. Upon Roger’s retirement from the Air Force in 1968, they purchased a small family farm in New Sweden, Maine. While Roger continued to work in Civil Service, Virgie and the boys helped him work the land, tend to milk cows, chickens, horses, vegetable and flower gardens, and other farming chores. It was hard work, but so full of joy, love and laughter. Whether laughing as Jeff released a stud horse in spring, or as Roger II fell down a flight of stairs (impersonating a Flip Wilson character), or mixing a “Hot Tottie” for a sick pig, she kept the family going. She was instrumental in seeing each of her boys grow physically and spiritually. When all of them went to church or to play softball, all they needed was a preacher or an umpire. At times they needed both. In 1989, Virgie and Roger moved to Kermit, Texas, where her son Jeff Lajoie and his wife Connie helped them remodel and settle into their new home at 424 Oaklawn. They regularly attended church at the Assembly of God or Church of God of Prophecy. Their days always included a time of personal prayer and devotions each morning together. She enjoyed working with Roger on the daily crossword puzzles and Jumbles. The daughter of a Prayer Warrior, she too became one. She prayed everyday, faithfully for each of her sons, their wives, grand children, and great grand children, calling to the Roll before the Lord each by name. She was always available to pray and would do so earnestly with conviction and expectation, for so many family members and friends. Virgie and Roger, as health permitted, could be seen with their son Steve at the monthly Jamboree at the Senior Citizens Center in Kermit, singing the gospel music that was so much a part of their lives. She was also a wonderful cook, as the physique of her “Darlin” and several family members and friends will attest. Though she never had a professional job in her life, she made “Love” the profession of her life. All who met her saw that twinkle in her eyes and felt the loving warmth of her heart. She recently became ill and spent several weeks in the hospital. Even as she weakened she continued her daily praying, not for herself, but for her “Darlin”, her family and friends, and for God’s will to be done. Just as he had for so many years, God heard her prayers. She was able to return to her home in Kermit. She was able to visit one more time with many of her family and friends. On the morning of April 29th, with her “ Darlin” at her side, she left her family here to rejoin her family in heaven. She will be dearly missed by all of her family and friends. This chapter of her life is closed. In order to know how her story will end, you will have to meet her in heaven and if you do, her final prayers for you will have been answered. She rejoins in heaven her father and mother, Roy and Olive Kelley, her Sister Hazel Lindgren, her oldest and youngest sons, Richard Lajoie, and Maurice Fosdick. She leaves behind her beloved “Darlin” Roger Fosdick of Kermit, Texas, Her brother Gary and wife, Jo Ann Kelley of Woodland, Maine, her aunt Beatrice McCarthy of Old Town, Maine, her sons, Michael and Cathy Lajoie, Maine, Jeff and Connie Lajoie of Kermit, Texas, Steve and Alice Fosdick of Wink, Texas, Kevin and Julie Fosdick of Elk River, Minnesota, Roger “Rod” Fosdick II of Portland, Maine, and Roy “Ed” and Debra Fosdick, of Winsted, Minnesota. Her grandchildren, Michael Lajoie Jr, Nathan Lajoie, Shanya Lajoie, Teri Shuler, Carrie Kohrs, Kelly Oglesby, Richard Fosdick, Marcella Jo Burns, Joshua Fosdick, David Fosdick, Billy Dunlap, Renee Brooks, Kendra Halverson, Adam Fosdick, Jamie Fosdick, Nicholas Fosdick, and Krystal Fosdick. Her great grandchildren, Trey Bale, Jeffery Bale, Kenzie Kohrs, Kennedy Kohrs, Taylor Oglesby, Skyler Brooks, Braden Dunlap, Madison Fosdick, and Abigail Halverson. And her dog Taffy. Services are scheduled for 4:00 PM Tuesday, May 3rd, at Family Services Funeral Parlor in Kermit, Texas, and 2:00 PM Saturday, May 7th, at Caribou Assembly of God Church, in Caribou, Maine.
