A huge hole has been planted in my heart with the passing of Virginia. A finer woman could not be found and it has been my profound pleasure to have been a part of her life for the past 25 years. I am extremely saddened by her passing. Knowing that she has been reunited with David ever slightly eases the pain. my thoughts are with the entire family during this difficult time.
