Virginia Algermissen
June 30, 1927 - August 5, 2019

Virginia L. Algermissen, 92, died Monday, Aug. 5, 2019, at Good Shepherd Care Center in Versailles, MO. Cremation. No services are scheduled at this time, and the family will have a private burial at her hometown of Kearney, NE. Memorials are suggested to Marshall Community Chorus in care of Julie Lewis at Campbell-Lewis Funeral Home in Marshall.



Born June 30, 1927, in Kearney, she was the daughter of the late Ray and Effie Lantz. She married the late Robert W. Lutterbie, and they later divorced. She then married the late S.T. Algermissen, and they later divorced.



Virginia was a mulit-talented person. She was an opera singer; she built two medical libraries for Texas A&M University and the University of Alabama at Birmingham as the director of those medical libraries. She was a Phi Beta Kappa honor society member and also raised two sons while finding time to work and earn her master’s degree in library science.



She spent her life devoted to her family and the Lord. Virginia lived in many locations early in life, and then settled in Marshall, MO, in 1994, becoming the director of the Marshall Public Library shortly thereafter. She was active in the community, but especially loved singing in the Marshall Community Chorus, as well as being a member of the First Christian Church’s choir.



She loved people, animals and life until she was stricken with Alzheimer’s and became a full-time victim of that disease in 2006. She fought hard and never gave up. She is loved and thought of every day by her family and friends.



Virginia is survived by her sons, Vincent M. Lutterbie and his wife, Melody, of Marshall and Brian R. Lutterbie and his wife, Vista, of Birmingham, AL; a sister, Barbara Pearson of Denver, CO; five grandchildren; three great-grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews.



She was preceded in death by her parents; a sister, Patricia Acker; and her ex-husbands.
