Obituary for Phyllis Marie Keesecker (Weidman)

Phyllis Marie Keesecker, age 87, of Martinsburg, the daughter of the late John William Weidman and Odessa Flora Weidman, passed away on February 21, 2015, while a patient at Hospice of the Panhandle and had previously been a resident at Elmcoft for the last sixteen months.

Phyllis was born March 28, 1927, in Berkeley County. She attended Martinsburg High School.

She retired from Corning Glass Works after 29 years.

She was a faithful member of Calvary United Methodist Church for 64 years. It was her special delicious recipe for apple dumplings that she frequently prepared for family and friends that sparked the idea for the successful fund raiser at Calvary and the "Apple Dumpling Gang". She was well-known for her other wonderful dishes and loved preparing them and sharing them with others.

She is leaving behind her only daughter, Patricia Queen, and her husband, Dr. William Queen; two beloved grandchildren, Wesley Queen and wife, Sarah and Whitney Spry and husband, Mike. She was also extremely proud of her three great-grandchildren, Easton and Oakley Spry and Bella Queen; and numerous nieces and nephews.

She has one surviving sister, Nancy Hayes and sister-in-law, Faustena Keesecker.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Paul E. Keesecker; three brothers, Eugene, Donald and Charles Weidman, and one sister, Helen Weidman.

The family will receive friends from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm, Tuesday, February 24, 2015, at Brown Funeral Home.

Funeral service will be held at 1:00 p.m., Wednesday, Feb. 25th, at Brown Funeral Home with the Rev. Robert Brennan officiating. Interment will be held at Pleasant View Memory Gardens.

In lieu of flowers, the family is requesting memorials and donations be sent to Calvary United Methodist Church, 220 W. Burke St., Martinsburg, WV, 25401 or Martinsburg Little League, P.O. Box 931, Martinsburg, WV 25402.
