Vicky “Grammy” Lynn Girth was a caring wife, mother, grandmother and
friend. She left this world on March 28th, 2022, at age 71, surrounded by
her family.
She was born to the late Gene and Lorene Boatright on November 5th,
1950. She is remembered by her husband of 52 years Dave, a son Scott
and his wife Amy; a daughter Gina; beloved grandchildren Zackery and
Destanie; and many more relatives and friends. She was preceded in death
by her brother Michael “Mike” Boatright.
Vicky and Dave celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on December
12, 2019. They spent a year together in Michigan while Dave was in the
service until returning and settling in their lifelong home in Republic, MO.
She felt very fortunate to be able to spend time at home raising her children
when they were young. When Scott and Gina started school, she began
working outside of the home at Security State Bank, and then moved to
Mercy’s Billing Department until she retired.
She loved her family dearly and she was loved even more. She greatly
enjoyed cooking for her family with her daughter and granddaughter, who
will cherish those memories forever. Christmas is not Christmas without
Grammys favorite recipes. She was an amazing seamstress and enjoyed
crocheting blankets and so much more. She was a wise shopper and
always loved a good bargain, her grandson once asked her if she ever
bought anything that was not on sale! Her family loved to tell her about any
good sale they found.
She grew up in a family of truck drivers and was incredibly proud when her
son began his own trucking company, Legacy Inc, in honor of her father
Gene. Her grandson now follows in their footsteps driving his own truck for
the family company.
In lieu of flowers the family asks you to send donations to The American
Diabetes Association or The American Heart Association.
