Mary Ann Homer Schill's Obituary
Mary Ann Schill
Mary Ann Homer Schill, 51, of Crozet, Virginia passed away at her home on March 24, 2015. Born in Cedar City, Utah on June 20, 1963 she was the seventh child of John Wendell and Myrle Ione Wangsgard Homer. Her siblings are Julia Dixie Homer (Albuquerque, New Mexico), John Louis Homer (Fishers, Indiana), Elsie Ione Crocfer (Farmington, New Mexico), Wendy Susan Wood (Santa Rosa, California), Karen Myrlene Potter (Prosser, Washington), Marva Lou Sadler (Kaysville, Utah), and Lori Ellen Homer (Seattle, Washington).
Mary Ann grew up in Kaysville, Utah. In her youth, she was active in choir, humanities, the Honor Society, and yearbook staff. She attended Brigham Young University and graduated with a degree in French and English. From 1984 to 1986 she served as a full-time missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the France-Paris Mission. As a missionary she served in Biarritz, Rennes, Versailles, and Le Mans. Her time as a missionary was profoundly important to her and served as foundation for the remainder of her life.
On April 29, 1988, she was sealed in the Manti LDS Temple to Michael Joseph Schill of Orem, Utah. Mary Ann and Michael are the parents of five children: Annilyn Marie Spjut (married to Lars Erickson Spjut) and Erin Suzanne Schill who are both students at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah; Emily Claire Schill currently serving as a full-time LDS missionary in Lisbon, Portugal; and Stuart Michael Schill and Aimee Louise Schill who both continue to live at home.
Mary Ann lived in Albemarle County, Virginia from 2001 to 2015. She loved cultures and travel and lived in many places with her family, including Melbourne, Australia (2008), Riverside, California (1998 to 2001), Seattle, Washington (1993 to 1998), London, England (1992 to 1993), Fontainebleau, France (1991 to 1992), and Greenwich, Connecticut (1989 to 1991).
Mary Ann dedicated her adult life to serving her church, community, and family. She inspired and entertained many as a skilled storyteller. As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, she held a particular fondness for teaching the doctrines of the gospel. For six years she taught an early-morning seminary class to the youth of Crozet. She served whole-heartedly throughout her life in many leadership and teaching roles in the church. In the community, she is well remembered for the years she dedicated to children and youth in the Joy School and Destination Imagination programs. Most importantly, she was fiercely devoted to her husband and children as a full-time mother. She was extraordinarily committed to demonstrating enthusiastic energy and support to the interests and affairs of her family. In her plainspoken manner, she maintained high standards of inspiring each member of her family to realize their best virtues. Her beautiful family continues as her most important legacy.
A viewing will be held Sunday, March 29th, 6:00-8:30pm at the Anderson Funeral Home, 5888 St. George Ave. in Crozet. Funeral services will be held Monday, March 30th, 10:30am at the LDS meetinghouse at 1275 Timberwood Blvd. in Charlottesville. Interment will be in the Sandridge Cemetery in Sugar Hollow.
