Virginia Mary Spear, 91, of Overland Park Kansas passed away peacefully on May 7th, 2025. She was surrounded by family, friends, and the amazing nursing staff at Saint Luke’s Hospice House in KC MO. Virginia was born in Kansas City Missouri on October 24, 1933 to Lily and Joseph Fiorella. She married John Marlon Spear Jr on April 25th, 1959 at St Louis Catholic Church in Kansas City Missouri. She was blessed with two children, John Marlon Spear the 3rd born 1960 and Elizabeth Joe Spear born in 1962. Virginia worked at Army Map until her children were born, then went back to work for the Social Security Administration in the early 1970’s.
She also leaves behind two grandchildren, Sabrina Nichole Wilson, 40, of Concordia MO and Lauren Spear, 25, of Kansas City MO. And two great grandchildren Braedyn Kelani Menzsa, 22, Independence MO and Kaleena Nichole Menzsa, 20, Independence MO.
Virginia was a selfless wife and mother, always devoted to her family. Supporting her husband and children, were the primary focus in her life. It didn’t end here, as she also raised her granddaughter Sabrina Nichole. Her love, caring nature, work ethic in and outside of her home, and selflessness for her family knew no bounds. Above all, she always made sure everyone had enough to eat. That’s how she showed her love.
