Always had a twinkle in her eye and enjoyed a good laugh. Her red lipstick was a standout. Virginia was a good cook, a devout Catholic and a devoted wife, mother, sister, aunt and friend.
Shopping at Madigan's, Daniel Green slippers, green tea with milk. A hot water bottle, taking a rest while watching her favorite TV programs. A box fan, a good book. Getting gussied up for events. Being teased by her boys and assisted by her doting daughters.
Her house was the gathering place for family and friends and her recipes are still shared and prepared by the generations she brought up. The 10 p.m. weekly coffee and her homemade biscuits brought them together to fight over "inside" or "outside" biscuits (the crust was best dunked in the coffee).
A loving wife, devoted mother and memorable grandma, Virginia surrounded herself with and loved her family dearly.
Note that birth certificate has 3 Aug 1917 as birth date but Virginia always used the 4th as her birth date; leaving as such on this memorial to match headstone and the date that her birth was always celebrated; please honor this
