My heart goes out to the family and friends of Virginia Howard, especially her sons whom she loved fiercely, and whom loved her just the same. Virginia would light up when they came to visit or when she would talk to them by phone or when we could figure out how to communicate with them thru " Alexa". I will remember her sitting on the porch being serenaded by her sons along with the sounds of the guitar. Her expression was one of pure joy. She was such a beautiful, elegant, kind lady. We will miss her and it indeed was a blessing to have known her.
