Virginia Stine dies, taught kindergarten at Bells Church
The Stine family was the first to move to Skyline Drive. That was back in 1945. Paul was an engineer at Naval Research, and they were active members of Bells United Methodist Church where Paul played the organ and Virginia taught kindergarten. Thirteen years later, when the McHales settled two houses away, the Stines welcomed us. I recall that they, and a few other neighbors, made our first Christmas here special by caroling at our front door.
After Paul retired in 1974, the Stines moved to Wingate on Maryland's Eastern Shore. Paul died May 31, 1986 at the young age of 66. Virginia lived on there alone, making beautiful quilts, painting, crafting, and volunteering at Dorchester General and Dorchester Hospice. She was chairman of the Dorchester Center of the Arts, active with the Historical Society, Folk Museum, American Legion Post #91 and St. Paul’s U.M. Church where she helped serve meals and work the flower fair. On this New Year's Eve, Dec. 31, she died. She was 96.
Virginia was born in Butler Grove Township in Illinois, daughter of Herman and Bertha Young. She attended Eastern Illinois Teacher's College where she met her husband Paul.
Her husband and seven siblings predeceased her. Survivors include daughter Sandra Nailos, sons Stephen P. and David A. Stine, two grandsons and two great-grands. Services were at Thomas Funeral Home in Cambridge with burial later in St. Elmo, Illinois.
