Johanna Anna Oliver

Johanna “Jo” Anna Oliver, age 83 of Moorefield, WV, passed away Thursday afternoon, May 18, 2023, at the Winchester Medical Center in Winchester, VA. Born April 10, 1940, in the Netherlands, she was a daughter of the late Corstian Hendrik van der Vossen and Petronella Catharina Wilhelmina (van den Berg) van der Vossen. A daughter, Susan Elizabeth Oliver Ervin and a brother, John van der Vossen also preceded her in death.
