Virginia Grasmick, 81, of Idaho Falls, passed away at her home on October 19, 2022.

Jeanie, as her family called her, was born in April 1941 in St. Anthony, ID the youngest of five children. The family were immigrant farmers, she grew up surrounded by her maternal grandparents as well as numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins. She loved spending her youth on the farm.

When her father could no longer work the farm and decided to retire, her parents bought a home in Idaho Falls taking Jeanie and her brother, Jake, to the big city. She cared for both her parents until their deaths. She passed away in the same house her parents had purchased years earlier.

Jeanie worked for over twenty years in a finance office until they went out of business. She then worked for the INL at the site in the Arco desert until she retired.

She loved her faith. She was a member of The First Presbyterian Church in Idaho Falls for decades. She taught Sunday School classes for many years.

She is survived by numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces and nephews, and great-great nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents: Jacob and Mollie (Niedehaus) Grasmick; brothers: Leo (Betty) and Jake (Mary); and sisters: Carol and Lucille.

Memorial services will be held at 1:00 p.m., November 3, 2022, at The First Presbyterian Church, 325 Elm Street, Idaho Falls, with Pastor Phil Hagen officiating. A small luncheon will follow. The family already had private graveside services under the direction of Coltrin Mortuary, 2100 First Street, Idaho Falls, so no other service will take place at the gravesite. She was interred at Fielding Memorial Park Cemetery in Idaho Falls, ID.

The family asks that in lieu of flowers well-wishers donate to a charity of their choice instead. Jeanie loved donating to Veterans organizations, her church, and Boys Town USA.
