On Tuesday, July 28, 2015, a child of God, and a loving mother Carolyn Via Shifflett of Crozet, Virginia, entered into eternal rest.  She was born November 6, 1945, in Charlottesville, Virginia, the daughter of the late Claude and Carrie "Nannie Goat" Via, and sister, Eunice Thurston and her husband, Grant.

She was educated in the Abemarle County Public School System, AHS class of 1966 Alumni, and was a retired LPN at Martha Jefferson Hospital.

She leaves to cherish in loving memory a daughter, Judy Lynn Payne and husband, Gregory; a twin sister, Anne Via Chick, former husband, James Shifflett; two grandchildren, Lanette Shifflett, and Hope Johnson and herhusband, Joshua; two great grandchildren, Gabrielle Ntenda, and Jaylan Johnson; one niece Tammy Bramble and her husband Jay; one nephew, Timmy Thurston; one grand niece, Mindy Bramble; one grand nephew, EJ Bramble; and one great great nephew, Wyatt Brown.To many she was known as sister, aunt, cousin and mom. However, the name that brought biggest smile to her face was to hear great-grands call her GG.
