Brenda and Carol, Billy Fulton and Shirley Jones told us about your mother's passing. She was a wonderful person, and we were privileged to know her and your family. She spread "sunshine" wherever she went, and had a ready smile that brightened one's day. She was indeed a role model for all of us. May the Lord comfort and bless you in your time of mourning and loss. Would love to hear from you sometime. It's been a long time! Love,

I'm so sorry to learn of Miss Virginia's passing. I have so many fond memories of her playing the organ at church. My mom, Peggy, loved working with her at choir practice and during worship services. They, along with Mr. Thomas and the rest of the choir, truly had fun making a joyful noise to the Lord! Virginia always had a smile on her face and was a sweet and gracious woman. I have been blessed to know her. I will be thinking of you, her family, and lifting all of you up in prayer. God bless you.
