JANIE POWELL CARVER

Mrs. Janie Powell Carver, 85, passed peacefully on April 25, 2020 with her daughter and son-in-law by her side. She was a resident of the Gloucester House, Gloucester, where she was cared for by the most professional and loving staff.

She is survived by daughter and son-in-law, Connie and Bobby Hoefer of Gwynn; son-in-law, Perry McClellan of San Antonio, Texas; granddaughter, Nicole Hughes and husband Chris of Chesterfield; grandson, Robert M. Hoefer of Christiansburg; grandson, Brian McClellan of San Antonio; four beautiful great-grandsons, Christopher Scott Jr., Brody Luke, Bentley Harper, and Coleman Alexander Hughes. She leaves behind six beautiful and loving sisters; one brother-in-law, and a host of nieces and nephews.

She was a talented seamstress and devoted military wife for 23 years to her husband, Vic. She loved to garden, boat, and travel in their motor home. Most of all, Janie loved her family. Janie was the most loving, caring person you could ever meet. She adored cooking for and entertaining anyone and everyone who crossed her path.

A celebration of Janie’s life will be held at a later date.
