Not sure what to say?

I wonder did ms Galle have a son named George ?

Virginia and Kurt were my next door neighbors since 1966. I had just been widowed , with 2 boys ages 5 and 2 yrs, was attending the University of Washington to get my speech and hearing degree as well as my k through 12 teaching degree.

Sweet and vivacious Virginia was always ready to help anytime I needed it . She had the cutest laugh and she and Kurt were often seen walking past the front of my house till she couldn't due to Alzheimer's.

It was in1981 when Virginia and Kurt participated in our yearly Fondue nights. The tradition lasted for 25 years. Our frienship was extended to many more get-togethers. Virginia was a very inspiring person to us. Our fondest memories will never die.

I worked with Virginia when she was running Licenses and Consumer Affairs for the City and I was head of Seattle Consumer Action Network.

We attended from the sixties (when I was too young to remember) through the eighties (after I was grown and married). As was mentioned in the obituary, Virginia was just so much fun. She will be missed, but...
