Verla Katherine Shreve Lamb, age 98 years, departed this life Wednesday, May 26, 2021 at her residence in Elkins after a brief illness. She was a loving wife and devoted mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She was known as \u201cBobbie\u201d to all her friends and family and lovingly called \u201cGrandma Bobbie\u201d by her great grandchildren.
She was born in Vegan, WV on Saturday, October 21, 1922 to mother Hazel Talbott Shreve and raised by grandparents, Hulda and Darius Talbott. She graduated from Buckhannon Upshur High School in the Class of 1941. She married Arnol Gordon Lamb on October 12, 1940 in Catlettsburg, KY and celebrated sixty-three years of marriage until his death on February 21, 2003.
She was proud to have worked at Glenn L. Martin Aircraft Company at Baltimore, MD as a Rosie the Riveter doing sheet metal and riveting work during World War II. Ringing the Bell for Rosie the Riveter began in 2014 on Labor Day. In memory of all Rosie\u2019s, Verla was the first to do the ringing of the bell which occurred at Buckhannon Upshur High School. Today the bell is rang around the world on every Labor Day. In December 2012, Verla was honored to be a part of an interview with all surviving WV Rosie\u2019s with Ann Curry of the TODAY show.
She lived with Arnol and their son, Arnol Jr., in Baltimore, MD until 1950, when they returned to Elkins and she worked at Hogan\u2019s as a bookkeeper for twenty-nine years until she retired.
She is preceded in death by husband Arnol, mother Hazel Talbott Shreve and brothers Mike, Robert, and Paul Shreve. She is survived by her son, Arnol Lamb, Jr. and wife Donna of New Bern, NC; granddaughter, Monica Christine Haskins and husband Freddy of New Bern, NC; great grandchildren, Allison Nicole Haskins of New Bern, NC, Michael Haskins and wife Emily of Jacksonville, NC; great great grandchildren, Riley and Liam; grandson, Brandon Arnol Lamb and wife Leeza of Yakima, WA, great grandchildren, Samantha Donna Lamb, Xarah Virginia Lamb, Kalub Arnol Lamb, Rebecca Caroline Lamb, and Abraham Brandon Lamb, all of Yakima, WA; her sister, Wannie Harris of Hugesville, MD; and many nieces and nephews who were very special to her.
She was a member of the Woodford Memorial United Methodist Church for fifty years. She was active in her community and was always there to help others. She was President of the garden club and while a member of Beta Alpha Beta was chosen Secretary of the year.
Her fondest memories were a trip out west where she got to participate in two of her great grandchildren\u2019s baptismal services in the \u201cCathedral of the Rockies\u201d Methodist Church in Boise, ID; she saw the Hoover Dam as she proceeded to fulfill her dream of seeing the Grand Canyon and spent several days in Sedona, AZ and surrounding areas. Other memorable events in her life were, her 60th wedding anniversary celebration, her many birthday parties with friends and family and a family reunion with her siblings and their families were also special to her.
The family will receive friends at the Lohr & Barb Funeral Home of Elkins from 4 to 7 PM, Friday, June 4, 2021. On Saturday, June 5, 2021, Mrs. Verla Lamb will be moved to the Woodford Memorial United Methodist Church where Final Rites will be conducted at 10:30 AM. The Rev. Jeremiah Jasper will officiate and interment will follow at the Mount Union Cemetery at Sand Run, WV. During the service, visitors are encouraged to share a brief personal memory of Verla. The family suggests that expressions of sympathy be in the form of contributions to the Randolph County Homeless Shelter, 938 South Davis Avenue, Elkins, WV 26241.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
