Virginia W. Purdy

Thankyou Virginia, for being the best next door neighbor ever!

I spent my entire childhood living next door to the wonderful Purdy family, and Virginia was the heart of it. Virginia's 3 terrific children, Bryce, Paula and Gussy did stints as my babysitter and playmate throughout our years growing up together. My mom was a bit younger than Virginia and leaned on her for child-rearing advice during their weekly coffee parties. Sometimes Virginia's nursing skills were called upon when...

Andrea, sorry to hear of your mother's death. It must be so hard to lose her. . . not having her there for holidays and family milestones. I'm sure you have many fine memories of her to take with you and pass on to your children. I remember her, too. Take care.

Herb and Family,
You are all in my mind and heart during this difficult time. I have wonderful memories of Virginia from my days in the office at FUS. I hope you all may find peace in your memories of this wonderful woman, wife, mother, and friend.

Herb,
I was so glad to see you this morning. Thank you for telling me about Virginia's death. I did not have an opportunity to know her when she was well, but she was a gracious person, even with her illness. You took such wonderful care of her. I know you will miss her very much.
Sincerely,
Wendy Fields

My thoughts are with you Herb.
