Such a beautiful lady, who made our neighborhood and the world a special place just by being a part of it. Heaven gained a true angel. Gone from our lives, but never from our hearts! With our deepest sympathy to Virginia's family.

I only have sweet precious memories of Auntie Virginia making time for nieces to hangout with her and do fun things. She also worked with children and youth at church and her and Uncle Franie were our youth sponsors and took us on many activities and welcomed us in their home for functions. I missed a lot of knowing her in the last 30 yrs, but she left her imprint in my formative years.

She had been such an amazing great grandmother to our Mackenzie. I am so lucky to have been able to be apart of her family the past 4 years and feel honored to have been welcomed as another granddaughter. Such a beautiful caring person, she will be missed but never ever forgotten. We love you Grandma, rest in paradise. <3

Virginia was a beautiful person and a wonderful neighbor for many years. She kept a beautiful garden and loved her animals. I missed her when she moved away and now knowing she is no longer with us in this world makes me sad but I know I will see my sister-in-Christ again some day.
