Bio

Virginia Curtis Amerine Potthoff March 2, 1929 ~ February 28, 2021 Virginia Potthoff of Fort Worth, Texas passed away February 28, 2021. She was born March 2, 1929 in Freeport, Texas to Clarence and Veta Amerine. She grew up in Marlin and later in Waco. In Waco, she met the love of her life, James Allen Potthoff and they were married on July 4, 1946. Their joyous 74-year journey as husband and wife took them to Dallas, Los Angeles, Spokane, Rochester NY, Detroit, Baltimore, and then back to Texas where they also lived in Grand Prairie, Arlington, Abilene, San Angelo and Fort Worth. Wherever she lived, Virginia made a warm, peaceful, loving home for her husband Jim and children and all who came to visit. A faithful Christian all her life, Virginia was an enthusiastic member of the many churches she and her family attended, including St. Peter Orthodox Church in her last years. Her devoted service, friendship, and countless covered dishes attracted admiration from all. Virginia's affectionate ways -- and no less her lively wit and disarming candor -- made an indelible impression on family and friends. She will be a presence all their lives. One of Virginia's biggest joys for 50 years was as Grandmommy, Grammy, and Gigi to eight grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. Special treats, games and lots of undivided attention and love enriched the lives of the youngest in her family beyond measure. She counted herself no less privileged. Survived by her husband, Jim Potthoff, daughter, Donna Latuszek, sons, Joe and Brad Potthoff, sister, Mary Hammer, grand children, great-grand children. Preceded in death by her sister, Ruth Amerine, brother, Clarence Amerine and grandson, Michael Latuszek on whose birthday Virginia fell asleep in the Lord. St. Peter Orthodox Church of Fort Worth is serving the rites for the faithful departed and her interment will take place at Perry Methodist Cemetary in Perry, Texas where generations of her husband's relatives rest...Thompson Funeral Home, Fort Worth, Texas.
