Affinity Funeral Service November 2024
Barbara Selig Nannery, 78, a resident of Dunnsville, Virginia, died peacefully 
on November 5, 2024, at Westminster Canterbury Richmond, surrounded by her sons.  
Born in Baltimore, Maryland, as the oldest child of a Navy veteran, she spent 
her childhood years traveling around the continental United States.  Barbara was 
married for 44 years to her beloved husband, Jim, who preceded her in death.  
Their livelihood was pursuing the “Great American Dream” in retail business as 
the owners of White’s Home & Auto Store in Tappahannock.  Their success would 
not have been possible without the support of their beloved Middle Peninsula and 
Northern Neck communities.
Barbara’s priority was always her family.  She had the patience of a saint, 
which was needed being married to “Big Jim” and raising her two boys.  She was 
the foundation and “rock” of her family, modeling the behavior that would mold 
her two sons and beloved grandchildren, as well as her two goddaughters, Alison 
and Erin Finger, and godgranddaughter, Ellie.  When Barbara was not boating with 
Jim, she enjoyed gardening, reading, and watching Hallmark movies.  She shared 
her artistic skills by painting the things she cherished the most, including 
southwest scenery, angels, and “rivah” scenery.  She was extremely devoted to 
the Lord and her Catholicism.  As a devoted member of St. Timothy’s Catholic 
Church, she was extremely involved in the parish for more than 45 years.
The family offers their sincere gratitude for the compassionate and loving care 
that Barbara received from the staff and volunteers at Westminster Canterbury 
Richmond for the last five months and is especially grateful for the connection 
she made with Rev. Brad Brodeur.
She is survived by her two loving sons, Michael A. Nannery (Stacey) and Patrick 
C. Nannery (Jenny); grandson, Colin; granddaughters, Dana, Madison, and 
Meredith; brothers, William and George Selig; and sister, Theresa Berens.  She 
was preceded in death by her husband, James Nannery; parents, Charles and 
Pauline Selig; and brother, John Selig.
A funeral mass will be held for Barbara at St. Timothy’s Catholic Church, 413 
Saint Timothy Lane, Tappahannock, Virginia, on Friday, November 15, 2024, at 
11:30 a.m.  The family will receive guests at the church at 10:30 a.m., before 
the funeral.  As there will not be an immediate graveside service, the family 
requests that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made in Barbara’s name to St. 
Timothy’s Catholic Church Human Needs Fund, P.O. Box 129, Tappahannock, Virginia 
22560.
