VIRGINIA DAY HAYDEN

Coming up on the 10th anniversary of Ginny´s passing (and close to the 21st anniversary of my mother Sidney Barnes´ passing in 2004). Thanks for the reminder as it brings back many, many memories of my interactions in West Newton and on Cape Cod with Ginny, the entire Hayden family, my Barnes family, and 2nd Church youth. Very special times in my life. Bob Barnes, Ridgecrest, northwestern Mojave Desert portion of Kern County, California.

Remembering Ginny as echoed in my comments made on this site Feb 6, 2015 and Jan 27, 2019. Lots of memories centered around Cape Cod visits and West Newton life and appreciative of the close relationship between Ginny and my mother, Sid Barnes.

Remembering Virginia Hayden today and thankful for her hospitality at Second Church, at the Cape Cod house, and at non-Cape and non-church gatherings. A wonderful friend to my mother Sid Barnes from the 1950s to 2004. Bob Barnes, Ridgecrest, Kern County, Mojave Desert, California.

Dear Hayden Family,
Ginny was a dear friend. We enjoyed many great adventures with Church Woman United. She was a dedicated Girl Scout Leader and was leader to many Newton young ladies. She will be missed. Until we meet again, Lee Hill

My heart goes out to you for your deep loss you must be feeling for your beloved Virginia. How sad to lose someone so loved and so needed. May you find comfort in prayer and in one another. (Jeremiah 29:12,13)

I remember "Auntie Din" and the life long relationship she shared with my mom. They met at Bates and became close friends. After College they continued to celebrate each other's joys and lament their sorrows. Rest in peace Auntie Din.

She taught us all how to live long with grace, wisdom and humor. We will miss her terribly.

Thinking of your Mom's long life and the decades of friendship between the Hanke and Hayden families that had its roots at Second Church. The Bean Club dwindled in time to two charter members, your Mom and our Dad, Ev Hanke. Wonderful times. We're thinking of you all and hope you find peace in the happy memories of Din's life.

Virginia contributed so much to the family reunions. For me, they will never be the same without her. God bless all of the family as you accept her passage unto the kingdom of heaven. My prayers are with you. With love, Linda (Ford) Parker
