Sister M. Virginia Picinic, F.D.C.

September 23, 2024

October 10, 1931 – September 12, 2024
Sister M. Virginia Picinic, F.D.C., a faithful Daughter of Divine
 

Charity for 54 years passed away peacefully into the arms of her Lord and Blessed Mother on September 12, 2024.

Sister Virginia was born on October 10, 1931 in Mali Losinj, Yugoslavia to Philip and Maria Picinich and baptized Anna Maria.  Sister Virginia completed her Elementary education in Susak, Yugoslavia in 1943.  She entered the United States as an immigrant with her parents in 1966.  In 1970, she made God’s Love visible through her commitment  to the religious life professing her first vows as a Daughter of Divine Charity in Akron, Ohio.  She served her Province as Sacristan, CCD teacher, Provincial  Councilor and in her work with the elderly, leading them in daily prayer especially the rosary.  The message of the Gospel was made visible by her prayerfulness, generous heart, and joy filled life to all she encountered.

Preceded in death by her parents, her brothers Lino and sister-in- law Maria, Egidio.  She is survived by her brothers John and Antoinio, Luka and Matea, nieces, nephews and relatives in New York and Italy.  Sister Virginia will be missed by all those whose lives she touched, especially her religious community and the families of the parishes in which she served in Ohio and Pennsylvania. Thank you to the doctors, caregivers, and staff, that lovingly cared for her. 

Visitation will be on September 20th at 10:00 A.M. before the Mass of Resurrection which will begin at 11:00 A.M. at Francesca/Leonora Hall Convent Chapel, 39 N. Portage Path, Akron, Ohio 44303.  Sister Virginia will be laid to rest at Holy Cross Cemetery. 

Donations in lieu of flowers can be made in her memory to the Daughters of Divine Charity.
