While continuing to live life to the fullest, Danny Ray Overby, age 65, of Keysville, Virginia died unexpectedly on September 8, 2018. Danny was born in Clover, Virginia on December 7, 1952. He was preceded in death by his beloved “Momma”, Aro Rickmond Overby and father, Frank Powell Overby. Danny is survived by his loving wife, Julie Duffey Overby; brother Dennis Overby (Rita); sister Sandy Flynn (Danny), nephews, Chase Flynn, Dustin Flynn (Kathryn W. Flynn), and niece Casey Flynn; step daughter Krystal Johns (Alan Jones), step grandchildren Allie Taylor and Max Johns, and a very special step great-granddaughter, Aniston Taylor, known as Danny’s Beetle Bug, who brought endless joy and everlasting love in their precious relationship.
Danny, known as “Fuzzy” to family and friends was retired from Norfolk Southern Railway where he worked for more than 30 years. His life was also blessed with his second family of friends at Briery Country Club, where he devoted much of his time and talents to helping maintain the pool and working alongside his brother, Dennis to “fix things” in the maintenance of the golf course.
Laughter always filled his conversations, and a smile on his face and a sincere hello greeted everyone he met. Fuzzy truly enjoyed every moment of life given him.
A Celebration of Life will be held at Ash Camp Baptist Church on Thursday, September 13, 2018 at 2:00 P.M with family and friends fellowship to follow in the Fellowship Hall. Family and friends are invited to join in a time of sharing memories during the service of celebrating Fuzzy’s life.
The family will receive friends at Briery Country Club in the Reception Hall on Wednesday, September 12, 2018, from 7:00-8:30 P.M. In lieu of flowers, please consider the Charlotte County Operation Food & Friendship Backpack Program (c/o Christy Lockridge at Central Middle School, P. O. Box 748, Charlotte Court House, VA 23923) or the Barksdale Cancer Foundation, P O Box 225, Charlotte Court House, VA 23923. The Browning-Duffer Funeral Home in Keysville, VA is serving the family.
