Virginia will be missed so much by all of the people whose lives that she touched. She always kept me out of trouble when she worked in Police Records. If I forgot to turn something in, she made sure it got done. She was like a second mom to many and I feel so fortunate to have called her my friend. I will miss hearing your laugh and your singing most of all. May you dance and sing with all of the other angels in heaven and keep watch over us all.
