Beth, Sondra & Mr Shackelford,
May the comfort of your family and friends help you through this difficult time. Mrs Schackelford was such a warm, caring and kind Mom. She brought me home many times from band practice in our early elementary/middle school years. She always had a kind word and a laugh to brighten our day. She was so full of joy-my deepest sympathy to all.

Virginia and Jim were always a fun couple when attending Parkway School Distric social functions. We enjoyed those times with Virginia.

Miss Virginia was my 4th grade teacher and she was wonderful. It was her first year of teaching and she was a breath of fresh air and kindness to her little students. We all loved her and still do. We are so sorry for her family and for your loss. Prayers for you all.

Please accept my condolences. Virginia was a wonderful person who could light up a room just by walking into it and beaming her smile. We were neighborhood moms together in the sixties, sharing day to day experiences. It was such a joy to have her as a friend. I shall never forget her loving and giving heart, her gracious spirit, and her infectious laugh. I pray that her family is comforted by the memories you share of a very special woman.

The day I was introduced to Virginia 12 years ago, she was in the act of doing a kind deed for someone else. I came to realize that was her normal way of interacting witheveryone who was fortunate enough to be called her friend. I shall miss her deeply for the rest of my life. God speed, dear friend.
