Virginia was a very sweet lady. She was always so happy. I enjoyed working with her we had so much fun and laughed alot. Always enjoyed going by to see her. She will be missed so much. So sorry for your loss. Thinking of all of you.
Nearly six years ago, I was mowing my lawn when I saw my neighbor from across the alley, whom I hadn’t yet met, walking towards me with tomatoes in hand. That day turned out to be a very special one for me as it began a cherished friendship. Virginia was one-of-a-kind. She had a great sense of humor and a big heart. She constantly shared things – books, newspapers, Halloween decorations, the Olympics (I didn’t have television). I loved visiting with her, especially listening to her stories and reminiscences (the white squirrels and the painting of the mistaken house are two of my favorites). It was a comfort to know I had a neighbor looking out for me. Oftentimes, Virginia would shake her head and tell me I stayed up too late. She was always trying to figure out what I was up to in my yard; usually when I told her what I was doing, she would shake her head some more and mutter, “I don’t know about that girl . . . ”
Although I have not met many of you, I have heard so much about you. Please accept my condolences during this time of loss. Virginia was a wonderful neighbor and lady. She will be missed.
My thoughts and prayers are with your family today. Though I never met Grandma, her spirit lives on through Jill and Brian. May you remember all the wonderful memories you have together as family. (Matt Crudello)
I was fortunate to be able to call her Mom for a short time! She was truly one of Gods blessings on this earth. I cant begin to tell you the JOY she brought into my fathers life! We struggle to figure out His plan for us , but only He knows and someday we may understand. The McLarens were such a loving and welcoming family, it is a glimpse of the love and compassion Virginia spread during her time with us! Our love and hearts go out to all who are missing her! All our LOVE , Robert, Merlene, Mary, Sarah, and all the Bundys !
We, out here in California, are grieving with all of you over the loss of our precious Virginia. She was such a sweet, upbeat lady! Her many trips out here to visit my Mom and family were special times. She loved to shop and Mom and I took her everywhere. We had so much fun. We so appreciated her thoughtfulness. She faithfully sent us birthday cards every year. My mom and she talked about every other day. Last Friday when Mom and I called her, she sounded weak but she remembered to ask about my grandson's recent surgery and how he was recovering. Thoughtful to the end. We loved her so much. We all, especially my mom, will miss her terribly. But we have that blessed hope that we will be together again!
