Frostburg, MD - Virginia L. Cuthbertson, 82, of Grahamtown, passed away Tuesday, Feb. 17, 2026, at Mountain City Rehab Center.

In addition to her parents, she is preceded by her husband, William Robert Cuthbertson; sisters, Geraldine Walls, Alma Jean Driscoll, Erma Loera Thompson and Martha Baker; brothers, Edward and Howard Holtzman.
