You and your family are in my heart and mind. My condolences on the passing of Virginia.
I am truly sad to hear of my dear friend Ginny’s passing. I send my best wishes to her dear husband Bud who I know gave her the best of care. I will surely miss our telephone visits. I believe she is at peace now and not suffering any more. I hope to meet her again in heaven. Since I am unable to attend her visitation my thoughts and prayers will be with the family.
I was a teacher at Onalaska Middle School for years and now retired. Ginny and I became good friends as I visited her daily for lunch. If my day was not going well, a little lunch time kidding around always made my day and brought my spirits up. She was kind, compassionate and a good person to be around. I am sorry to hear of her passing.
