She was born on April 27, 1927, in Harrisonburg and was the daughter of the late Perry H. and Nell Grove Baugher.
Paige lived most of her life in the Harrisonburg area and spent eight years in Winchester. She graduated from Harrisonburg High School and attended Radford College. Later in life she worked at Rockingham National Bank and retired in 1989. She was an avid member of the Emmanuel Episcopal Church in Harrisonburg.
Paige lived her last years at Journey’s Crossing in Elkton. The family would like to thank Journey’s Crossing for the wonderful care and love, and Emmanuel Episcopal Church, Harrisonburg, for thoughts and visits. Also, thank you to all the friends and family that have inquired about her, and took her personality as it was.
On March 7, 1947, she married Hubert Elwood Leary, who preceded her in death on February 7, 2007.
She is survived by a son, Thomas S. Leary of Mt. Sidney; a daughter, Susan P. Davis and spouse, Robby, of Elkton; and four grandsons, Justin and Garett Davis, Hunter and Tanner Leary; two great-grandchildren, Liza B. and Jase.
In addition to her parents and husband, she was preceded in death by two brothers, Perry H. Baugher, Jr. and John G. Baugher; and a daughter-in-law, Cilla Leary.
Honoring her wishes, she will be cremated, and a memorial service will be held 3 pm, Sunday, March 30, 2025, at Lindsey Funeral Home in Harrisonburg with Pastor Dan Bassett officiating. The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service.
