Not sure what to say?

Virgil was like the Grandfather I never had, always joking and teasing me. When I had to go to the dentist Virgil use to say to me "You better take a gun with you, I always bring a gun with me when I go to the dentist." Virgil will never be gone he will always live on in memories.

Jeanette, The family of Marcel and Minnie Morhet offer our condolences to you and your family.

Virgil Robinson was a very special man to me...he took me under his wing and showed me how to do very well in the coal mining buisness...when i started Virgial was my superintendant...we worked hard and we played hard....

The finest folks next door I ever had were you two in christopher in 1976. Good luck and God bless,. Virgil was a great person.

Miss Universe and Miss America are thinking of Virgil's family and neighbor! The "Mean Nurse" will miss his spirit very much. What a wonderfully hilarious man, we miss him here.
Deepest Condolences-Dr Rao and Staff.

When I started at Orient #3 at 19 years old in 1971, Virgil was the Mine Superintendent. For reasons unknown to me, Virgil liked me and gave me several excellent opportunities at that young age. Now, nearing retirement age myself, I can really appreciate the interest Virgil took in a very young miner and how his interest in me benefited my entire life. My deepest sympathy to Virgil’s family.
