Mary Virginia (Kenny) Roesler, the firstborn of Edward J. Kenny and Mary E. (Berghoff) Kenny, arrived in Chicago, IL, on July 12, 1934. She left this earth peacefully after being surrounded in her final days by loving family and wonderful caregivers at home on the morning of December 27, 2022.

Ginny attended St. Mary of the Woods College, then in Chicago on November 8, 1958, married beloved husband Max A. Roesler III, whom she had set her eyes on at a young age in Rome City, Indiana. After raising their family in Fort Wayne, they retired to Rome City, on beautiful Sylvan Lake, where Ginny loved to watch 'her sunsets' and welcome family.

Max III preceded her in death, as did youngest son Mark E. Roesler (Reading, MA.) and brother John P. Kenny. She is survived by sons Max A. Roesler IV (Kathy) and Michael J. Roesler (Karen) both of Fort Wayne, and daughters Sheila A. Roesler (Fishers, IN) and Susan E. Garringer (Rome City, IN), and Mark's wife Jennette Thomas.

Also surviving are Ginny's brother Edward J. Kenny (Nixa, Missouri) and sisters Sr. Betty Kenny, OSF (St. Paul, MN) and Patricia Fanone (Tony; Lino Lakes, MN), She is also survived by numerous beloved grandchildren (who called her Baa), great-grandchildren, and nieces and nephews who will miss her and their weasel-bopping adventures with the Ghost with the One Black Eye.

In addition to being a full-time Mom, as she and Dad raised 5 kids born over 6 years, Ginny was a full-time volunteer during her lifetime, both in Ft. Wayne (including the Athletic Dept. of Bishop Luers HS) and Rome City, where she and Max were long-time members of St. Gaspar Catholic Church.

Ginny & Max enjoyed many dear, lifelong friends across the nation, with whom they shared raising kids, welcoming grandchildren and celebrating other family events. Ginny excelled at bridge, crossword puzzles and of course, hand knitting Christmas socks!
