My sympathies to the family of Sister Virginia Griffin. She was a math teacher and friend while she was in Lebanon, N.H. many years ago. I also appreciate her friendship with my sister, Muriel Manson, who died last year at St. Anne's Rehab Hospital in Dover, N.H.

Sister Virginia has been a close friend of my mother and our family since they were in high school together. I have fond memories of watching the television show "Maverick" together on Sunday nights. She's a kind,thoughtful and generous soul. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Father Mike and your family.

Sister Virginia was such a special person. We will forever remember her smile & stories.

We will miss you,
