Vassar Jr. of Newport News, and Mark David Vassar of Wakefield; and numerous nieces and nephews of whom she adored. There were also many close special friends "Angels" that she adored and loved.
The family would like to extend a special thank you to all of the doctors and nurses that cared for her during her illness.
The family will receive friends from 6 to 8 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 4, 2010, at the Purviance Chapel of J.T. Morriss & Son Funeral Home in Wakefield.

Thinking of you and your family. You are in my thoughts and prayers. May you find peace in knowing she is with God now. Any loss is a great loss but knowing our loved ones are with the ONE that will heal our pain and suffering is most comforting. I am so sorry for your tremendous loss.
