Virginia was a dear friend & neighbor, as I grew up with Dennis, Donna & Steve in our younger years, playing together in our neighborhood. I don't believe I have ever met Linda, but I am sure she has the same wonderful memories & qualities of her Mother. My heart breaks that this beautiful woman has passed, but I find comfort in the fact she lived a long life & is reunited with Clayton & my parents once again & the sweet memories of her, stay in my heart. God bless you dear Virginia! Go fly sweet lady!
