I haven't visited with Virginia for a long time, but that doesn't mean that I won't miss her. I remember some of the old days in Earle with her humor and kindness. My thoughts and prayers are with all of the family and friends.

Jerry, Judy, Joe & your families, I was so sorry to hear of your Mother’s passing. I loved being your neighbor growing up in Earle & loved Mrs. Virginia. She was always so nice & kind to us. She & my Mother were good friends for many years. We had some great times. May your wonderful memories give you peace in the days ahead. My thoughts & prayers are with you all during this sad time.

Aunt Jenny had the kindest heart. She always had the funniest stories and would keep you laughing. You will be missed and are so loved. Fly high with the Angels and we will see again some day. I love you
