MILJEVIC, Maria Reiling, 90, of Richmond, died peacefully on Monday, February 23, 2015, after a brief illness. She is preceded in death by her husband, Milorad and a daughter, Ursula.

She also leaves behind countless numbers of devoted school boys from the Lower School of St. Christopher's School, their teachers and, especially, the Lower School nurse and beloved friend, Annette McCabe.

The family wishes to express its deep gratitude and appreciation to the entire staff of Beth Shalom who made Maria's final days comfortable. The family will receive visitors at Woody Funeral Home, 1771 North Parham Road, Richmond, Sunday, March 1 from 4:00-6:00 p.m. A graveside service will follow Monday, March 2, at 1:00pm at Westhampton Memorial Park, 10000 Patterson Avenue, Richmond.
