Virgil, It was a blessing working with you at the NC Coliseum. We started there together in Jan '93 and you always had me laughing at your stories or you trying to "get one" on me with one of your pranks. I didn't know your family, but the many loving stories you told about them made me feel like I did. To VG's family, I am very sorry I won't be able to be there to pay my respects, but know my heart is hurting for your loss and the loss of my friend. My friendship with him will be something I will never forget. May he rest in peace.

Virg...knowing & working with you for almost 20 years was a blessing! You were always my favorite supervisor, and always treated us as equals. You have been greatly missed at work, thank you for being my friend, and allowing me to be yours! I will never forget our times or your stories of growing up downtown. I will carry for you in my heart...until we meet again, my dear friend.
