To Vergie´s friends & family, especially Lou. It´s been quite some time since our paths crossed, but time & miles can´t lessen the heartbreak I feel for you right now. I wish there was a way I could lessen this blow for you, but all I have to offer is hugs.
Sending heartfelt condolences to you all.
Rest In Peace, Virgie

Louie, Virgie was so wonderful. She is the kindest person I have ever met. You went to many Marine Corps reunions together and traveled to many places. I will miss Virgie very, very much.
