Virginia Ruth Sneathen left her earthly home to be with her Heavenly Father on Tuesday, April 22, 2014. Virginia was born in Roseland, Arkansas on October 28, 1933 to Homer and Nettie (Bourland) Boren. Virginia graduated from high school in Manila, Arkansas. On June 29, 1955, she married Charles Sneathen in Ellerslie, Maryland. They moved to Casper, Wyoming in September of 1955, where they had two sons. They eventually moved to Gillette, where Virginia worked as an aid at the old Gillette Hospital. Next she began working for Dr. James Swenson and Dr. Bill Suedkamp. When the doctors split their practice, Virginia continued working for Dr. Suedkamp for a total of 23 years. She retired in 1996 from the dental office. She loved to travel, going to the Chicago area, down to Arkansas for family reunions, and most recently to Florida. The last few years of her life you could always find Virginia having lunch at the Senior Center with her friends and staying to play bridge in the afternoons. Virginia loved going out to eat with friends at Burger King for a hamburger and ice cream cones. She also enjoyed spending time with her great-grandchildren. Virginia is survived by her two sons; Chuck Sneathen II and Don (Debra) Sneathen both of Gillette, Wyoming, her two sisters; Faye Cokenour and LaVonne Schmidt of Des Plaines, Illinois, her brother; Herbert Boren of Cabot, Arkansas, her four grandchildren; Gavin (Darla) Sneathen, Shea Sneathen, Hannah (Justin) Hillius and Trey Sneathen, 3 great-grandchildren; Baylon and Broden Sneathen, Mac Hillius and soon to be Taurii Hillius.
