Not sure what to say?

My uncle and aunt...REST IN PEACE.

There are no words to say how many wonderful qualities Virginia embodied. She was a true Southern lady and one who impacted my life in so many ways. I think of her often. She will always live in the special place in my heart reserved just for her. She taught me grace under pressure, how to respond to everyone with a loving attitude and to put others before ones self.
She was elegant, kind and consistently so. To know her was to love her and I surely did.
Heaven surely did gain...

Mrs. Cannon was a beautiful person inside out. I am so sad to learn of her passing.

My sincerest condolences. I met Virginia my first year of teaching at CE Williams. She was such a blessing. I have thought of her many, many times over these last 39 years. She will be greatly missed by many.

We loved Virginia so much and I smile when I think of her grace and over whelming calmness. She and my Mom were quite a guidance counselor team.

So sorry for your loss. Loved Virginia and she was the best guidance counselor I ever had. Sending prayers and love.

I knew Virginia from Orange Grove Elementary. She was such a loving, dedicated counselor. Heaven has another angel. Thoughts and prayers for her family.
