VIRGINIA GRANDON

Virginia Main Grandon, 92, of Sweetbriar Assisted Living, Dunbar, passed away September 9, 2014 at the Hubbard Hospice House West.

A former resident of South Charleston (where she resided with her son John) and Cass, WV, Virginia was born in Garrison, PA on January 2, 1922 to the late Harley Main and Myrtle Six Main of Hundred, WV.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Glen; one sister, Helen Main and one brother, Zinn Main; her step-father, Alonzo Bartrug and her beloved dog, Joey.

Virginia "Ginny" and Glen lived in Charleston for nearly 20 years before moving to Cass, where they resided for nearly 30 years. Virginia, at one time, was the Mayor of Cass and Glen was the Chief of the Cass VFD. Glen retired from the Green Bank Observatory.

A fabulous cook, Virginia loved baseball, especially the New York Yankees.

The house in Cass that Glen and Ginny lived in is now a tourist home and is named "The Grandon House" in their honor.
