Our Friend Lynn Mooney of Smith Mtn Lake Died May 4, 2008

2008-05-06T12:56:00.002-04:00

Lynn Gail Hall Mooney

June 2nd 1946 to May 4th 2008

Lynn Hall Mooney, 61, of Smith Mountain Lake (Wirtz), lost her courageous battle with cancer on Sunday, May 4, 2008, at Carilion Roanoke Memorial Hospital.

She was born on June 2, 1946 to the late Earl Jenis Hall and Elizabeth Jane Hare. Lynn is survived by her husband of 40 years, Kenneth Edward Mooney; two sons, Kevin Eric Mooney and wife, Theresa, Joshua Braxton Mooney and wife, Dawn; one daughter, Kristen Davis and husband, Greg; all of Midlothian, Virginia; eight grandchildren; sister, Lee Pearman and husband, Jack of Pulaski; mother-in-law, Eileen Mooney of Princeton, West Virginia and several nieces and nephews who she loved as if they were her own.

After graduating from Winthrop University in Rock Hill, South Carolina, Lynn was an inspiration to thousands of students as an art teacher at Cave Spring High School in Roanoke County, and then at Manchester High School in Chesterfield County.

She retired after 33 years of teaching in 2002, and she and Ken decided to make Smith Mountain Lake their permanent home. She quickly fell in love with her new home and many new friends where she became active in The Smith Mountain Lake Women’s Club, Westlake Ladies Golf Association, The Chapter AI of PEO Sisterhood and the Smith Mountain Lake YMCA. She was a member of Trinity Ecumenical Parish Church.

A memorial service will be held at 11 a.m. on Wednesday, May 7, 2008 at Trinity Ecumenical Parish with Pastor Gary Scheidt officiating. The family will receive friends in the Parish Hall following the service.

Lynn’s family would like to thank all of the Doctors, Nurses and Staff at Carilion who gave her the strength to fight because she considered them as her friends. In lieu of flowers memorial contributions may be made to,

Trinity Ecumenical Parish, 40 Lakemount Drive, Moneta, VA 24121; Smith Mountain Lake YMCA, 293 Firstwatch Dr., Moneta, VA 24121; Scruggs Rescue Squad 13310 BT Washington Hwy, PMB10, Moneta, VA 24121.

We loved Lynn very much and she brought great joy to all who knew her.

The Westlake Golf & Country Club at Smith Mountain Lake

It is with great excitement that we announce the 2nd Annual Wine Social will be held at The Westlake Golf & Country Club on Saturday, May 31, 2008 at 5:00 PM. The theme this year will be "Wines of the Old World" featuring wines from Italy and France.

Keith Overstreet from Blue Ridge Beverage will be on hand to discuss the wines and the wine growing regions. There will be plenty of hors d'oeuvres matching the theme and all attendees will receive an 8 oz. VT etched wine glass. There will be time to mingle with old Hokie friends and to make some new ones. The chapter will also be announcing the 2008 scholarship recipients. This year there will be two scholarships awarded.

The 2007 Wine Social was a big success with 65 people in attendance and the event raised enough money for one scholarship. Bring some of your friends and let's make this year's event even more successful!!

Stay after the social for dinner at The Westlake. Chef Rosie has prepared a special menu which includes flounder stuffed with crab, slow roasted prime rib and chicken breast topped with shrimp & scallops just for this event for $18.95 plus tax and gratuity.

What they are saying out there?

2008-02-15T13:37:00.005-05:00

What they are saying out there versus what’s really happening?

A large percentage of our business at Smith Mountain Lake is primarily vacation / second homes and the retirement market. The media has created sensational commentary that is only somewhat meaningful to SW Virginia. The negative media is rough on our business. Our buyers’ are very much affected by what they hear in the media. We’re dealing expectations of “low ball” offers and a new term that was introduced to me in 2007. "Bottom feeding" which means seeking out the “deal”. Those “deals” create multiple offer situations. My clients and I got caught in that several times in 2007. (No contingencies and cash often won)

Real estate is a local activity. Transfers are happening at Smith Mountain Lake with the number of sales in 2007 increasing over 2006. Median water front home price was $650K.

The difficulty is in getting the message out to the buyers who often several hours away. Since our market is elective, our sellers have not seen the prices go down significantly because there is no urgency for them to sell. The days on market are long because many sellers don’t have to sell and the buyers don’t have to buy.

Testimonial:
The site, for the most part, was helpful and informative. I appreciated it when postings included as many pictures as possible and not just the front of the house. The updates were extremely helpful in eliminating properties that were no longer available. This was a good way to learn about what came up on the market in the area – although seeing everything in person is still the only way a really informed decision can be made. I looked forward to the listings each day. The site worked beautifully, was easy to navigate and reliable. K Daenzer
