I was saddened to learn of Virginia's passing. She was such a wonderful, interesting woman whom I only met when she was 89. We wrote each other often through the years and she had me over for lunch. She was amazing. We tried to save the Lawrence Cemetery together (where her parents are buried) - She touched my heart & I will never forget her.

I'm so glad I was able to spend time with Aunt Boo last summer. We watched her family DVD and shared some tender memories together with my parents. She was a wonderful and lively lady. We will miss her greatly.

Wow, 96. I remember her as so energetic and vibrant. She was so friendly also. I also remember she was in Jay a few times when we were there.
