Some people you never forget. Virginia will certainly be one of those people for me. It's been decades since I last saw her and can picture her in an instant - bigger than life and just as cool a lady as you'd ever want to meet. I am sorry for the loss of those she leaves behind and grateful that you got to enjoy such a long life with her.

Virginia was a wonderful friend to my mother Nellie Hardy. I spent much time with Virgina over the course of their friendship. She is one on the kindest of heart people I know. I feel very lucky that I got to know her. I hope her and Nellie find each other in heaven. My deepest sympathy.
