Virginia graduated from Acalanes HIgh School and went on to get her "Mrs" degree at Armstrong Business College. She married the love of her life, William Daniel Stone, in 1959. They went on to raise their family in San Ramon. Virginia worked as a bookkeeper for La Fiesta Foods (Family grocery store) and later as a claims adjuster with East Bay Motor Car Dealers. Virginia and Bill enjoyed many years together traveling, entertaining and dining out.

She loved her Lord and Savior and served in the church choir and many bible studies. She was a God Filled woman, always sharing his word and inspiring others. She had a special talent for decorating, entertaining, gardening and gourmet cooking. She truly loved getting together and enjoying family, a special "lifelong" college group and many, many friends.
