In Memory...

Erica Lynn McGraw, a  25-year-old  lifetime Blue Ridge Acres Resident, died early Oct. 5 in a single vehicle wreck just west of Leesburg.  She was the daughter of Kay and Farren McGraw, of Red Bird Lane.  Erica was a former lifeguard at the Blue Ridge Acres Community Club Pool, and she was famous with all the kids because she taught so many of them how to dive and assisted with their swimming.   Erica will truly be missed by those who knew her.

Jeanne E. King, died on Friday September 14, 2007.  She was the wife of William King.
Born on June 10, 1947 she was the daughter of the late William Russell and Viola Whisman Baker, Sr.
Jeanne volunteered at the Children's Inn at NIH, was a routine platelet donor at NIH and a member of the Dickerson Methodist Church. Surviving besides her husband are her children; Valerie Turnquist of Knoxville, MD, Connie King of Harpers Ferry, WV, Kristi Cunningham of Miami, FL, one brother; William Baker, Jr. of Berkeley Springs, WV and 7 grandchildren.


We continue to keep both families in our thoughts and prayers
