Obituary

Virgil Steven Nyman passed away peacefully at his sister Carol's home in Orem on Wednesday, April 7, 2021. Virgil was born in Provo, Utah on July 14, 1966, the 6th child of Monte S. Nyman and Mary Ann Sullivan. He primarily grew up in Provo, Utah where he attended and graduated from Timpview High School. He traveled with his parents on their various BYU assignments to Jerusalem, Hawaii, Illinois, and Virginia. At each of these places Virgil was loved by the various students who were participating. Virgil has a keen memory and would often recite the names of the many who befriended him. Dogs loved Virgil and Virgil loved dogs. He also was an ardent fan of University of Utah Football and particularly of Coach Kyle Whittingham. Besides his family, WWE Wrestling, KitKat candy bars, and especially Coke brought him joy. His insightful observations and quick-witted tongue often generated much laughter. Virgil is preceded in death by his father Monte and his mother Mary Ann as well as his sister June Owen (Kevin). He is survived by his 6 siblings: M. Scott Nyman (Becky), Lori Olson (Marty), Dessie Mitchell (Todd), Mary Jo Smith (Darren), Lorna Miller (Steve), and Carol McWhorter (Skip). He has many nephews and nieces whom he loved. Since the passing of his mother in 2016, Virgil has taken turns living with his various siblings. It was a privilege and a blessing to "take care of" Virgil during this time. Virgil helped unify the family and he helped make those who interacted with him better people. He is an inspiration to his family and others. Although Virgil struggled with many physical and social challenges, he endured them valiantly, with faith in his Savior Jesus Christ and in the Plan of Salvation.
