VIRGINIA PEACH MIX
January 24, 1936 – September 17, 2025

Virginia P. Mix, 89, of Lutherville, Maryland, passed away peacefully on September 17, 2025, at the Pickersgill Retirement Community in Towson.

Born on January 24, 1936, Virginia led a vibrant and purposeful life devoted to making meaningful memories with her family and friends.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 52 years, G. Warren Mix (May 2012), her parents, Francis T. Peach (February 1988) and Virginia Dorsey Peach (March 2003), and her siblings Francis T. Peach, Jr. (June 2011) and Marie Louise Alascio (February 2015).

Virginia and Warren shared a wonderful life together, full of laughter, love, and family. Now reunited, “Grandee” and “Moose” are survived by their four children: G.W. Mix (Mary Mix), Suzanne Mix Rich (Hunter Rich), Gregory Nelson Mix (Sara Mix), and Rebecca Mix Taylor (Brad Taylor). “Grandee” was a deeply devoted grandmother to ten grandchildren: Ryan Mix (Sophie Mix), Hunter Rich Jr., Austin Rich, Casey Mix, Wyatt Rich, Megan Mix, Garrett Mix, Kyle Mix, Caroline Taylor, and Catherine Taylor, and two great-grandchildren, Felix Mix and Arthur Mix.

A proud graduate of Mount St. Agnes High School (1950–1954), Virginia excelled in field hockey, basketball, and volleyball, and gave back to her school and community through various clubs and charitable activities. Her classmates fondly remembered her as “popular and tons of fun.” She earned her degree from the College of Notre Dame of Maryland in 1958 and began her career as a public school teacher after a memorable graduation trip to Ocean City. As an educator and a mother, she was steadfast in her commitment to nurturing educational opportunities and experiences for her children.

Ocean City, Maryland, played a central role in Virginia’s life. What began as a cherished summer tradition with her family—raising their children on the beach at 14th Street—eventually became her year-round home. Sons G.W. and Greg eventually sat overwatch as longtime members of the town’s Beach Patrol. Summer jobs were a must for her children, and Ocean City provided a wealth of opportunities. Following Warren’s passing in 2012, Virginia made the beach her permanent residence, later relocating to Pickersgill in 2024. She embraced beach life wholeheartedly and was an active member of the Ocean City Downtown Association, the Ocean City Golf Club, and the Ocean City Marlin Club.

Virginia was the ultimate hostess. Her legendary holiday gatherings—especially her Thanksgiving Dessert Party—brought together family and friends from near and far for laughter, connection, and the occasional lively moment.

She loved playing golf alongside Warren, her children, and close friends, frequenting the courses at Baltimore Country Club, Ocean City Golf Club, and Hilton Head. No round was complete without lively post-game conversation at the nineteenth hole or a local restaurant—where the true purpose of golf, for Virginia, revealed itself: camaraderie and connection.

A passionate traveler, Virginia explored Europe several times, adventured along both coasts of the U.S., spent Christmases in Hawai‘i, and treasured her late-summer getaways to Maine with Warren and close friends. Most of all, she cherished time spent with her children and grandchildren across Baltimore, Chicago, Newport Beach (CA), and Ocean City.

Virginia’s warmth, wit, generous spirit, and enduring love will be missed deeply by all who were fortunate to be part of her wide and wonderful circle.

The family has planned a private service, and there are no current plans for a public commemoration.
