They married October 29, 1943 and shared many happy years together until Ray's death in 1978. They moved to California in 1948 to care for Ray's mother and remained there until they moved back to Colorado in 1977. No matter where she lived she was a Colorado girl and was always proud of her farming roots.
Virginia was a world traveler and never missed an opportunity to learn from her surroundings. She spent many years as a member of the Delta Chi Sigma sorority and served as the International Organizer. Her dedication help build the sorority into an international group.
She visited Japan several times and began to learn to speak and write Japanese in her 70s. She loved Hawaii and spent many happy times there with Ray and her family.
