Ora Elmer Stollings Obituary

Ora Elmer Stollings, 98 of Chapmanville, WV, entered into his heavenly home on Sunday, November 16, 2025 at his residence.


He was born October 18, 1927 in Switzer, WV, the son of the late Floyd and Nancy Carter Stollings.


In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his 1st wife, Delsie Stollings, his 2nd wife, Minnie Hull Stollings, his children, Danny Joe (Tammie), Jerry and Terry, and his siblings, Odessa (Veno), Geneva (Orville), Ethel (Elmer), Thelma, Kermit (Phyllis), Ron (Damsel), Parker (Von) and Betty (Charles).


Elmer loved the Lord with all his heart. He loved to visit and pray for people. Elmer was a member of the Wheatly Branch House of Prayer. He worked for the railroad and was a coal miner. Elmer was the owner and operator of Elmer's House Moving and Co-Owner of the Heavy-Quip House Moving for over 50 years. His house moving legacy can be seen throughout WV, KY, OH and PA. One of his favorite stories was when he promised a concerned customer he could move his house without spilling a glass of water. When the customer checked, no spillage had occurred.
