Quesenberry, Foster Freelin
Foster Freelin Quesenberry, 94, of Indian Valley VA, passed away peacefully, surrounded by family on November 24th, 2024. He was preceded in death by infant grandson, Jamie Lafon Alley; and his beloved wife of 69 years, Ledlie Velma Huff Quesenberry.
Foster was a loving husband, father, and grandfather and was known far and wide for his uncanny ability to fix anything that had a motor. His self-taught knowledge of cars and trucks, especially his beloved Fords, rivaled any mechanic in the world. He worked diligently for many years keeping various businesses equipment running and was well known to be quick with a good story…most that were true! Foster was a simple man, who never met a stranger and was always willing to lend a hand. He was larger than life and will be missed by all who had the good fortune to cross paths with him. They truly don’t make them like him anymore.
Left to cherish his memory are his four daughters, Barbara J. Marshall, Lois Morgan (Harold), Melinda Phillips (Kevin), Wanda Alley (Rocky), all of Indian Valley; seven grandchildren, April M. Byrd of Christiansburg, Amanda Duncan (Shawn) of Indian Valley, Misty Johnson (Elliott) of Roanoke, Grace Duncan (Christopher) of Indian Valley, Samuel Phillips (Audrey) of Christiansburg, Isaac Phillips (Kim) of Willis, and Faith Harris (Isaac) of Floyd; seven great-grandchildren, Luke and Lilly Duncan, Nalani and Miles Johnson, Tinley and Ariella Duncan, and Hazel Harris.
Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Wednesday, November 27, 2024 in the Maberry Funeral Home Chapel with Rev. Kenneth Poston and Pastor Rocky Huff officiating. Interment will follow in the Cox Cemetery. The family will receive friends from 10 a.m. until 11 a.m. prior to the service at the funeral home.
The family would like extend a special thank you to the Carilion New River Valley Medical Center Staff, Floyd County Rescue Squad, and to Kelly Hill for going above and beyond with her compassionate care. We are grateful to all that visited and called Foster, he cherished everyone.
In lieu of flowers, per Foster’s request, please do something good for someone in need.
