My grandson and I saw Vi last summer when we were in Norfolk. I go way back with her starting in 1959 working at the Army Corps of Engineers where I met my husband. David and I player a lot of bridge with Vi and Johnnie. We visited them every time we visited Norfolk. I stayed with her the last time 3 1/2 years ago. We were both widows. She loved her church. I know she is with the Lord.
