I will miss her random phone calls asking how im doing and if the family is good making sure we kept up on all the latest news at her community. She always always always made sure to call me during the holidays. We swapped recipes, talked about the tv shows we both watched and laughed about so many things. She was an amazing beautiful soul in this world and im gonna miss her terribly. Her kindness, generosity but most of all her unwavering love. Love you Ginny I know you're up there rocking those new angel wings. ❤️❤️❤️

I have such fond memories of Virginia. Our family visited Tucson many times from Chicago in the 60's as both my Dad's Brothers moved there from Iowa. Virginia was always an excellan host. Her Mexican food, especially mini chimichangas was delicious.
I moved to AZ in 1970 to attend ASU. So of course I visited both Uncles and Aunts often. I had a 4 wheel drive so Virginia asked me to take some clients to Green Valley to look at property that was hard to access in a regular vehicle. It was quite memorable to me.
I lived in Tucson the summer of 1971 to become an AZ resident. Virginia got me a job at the Cement Company in Marana. She was well connected in the community. She was always a very special person in my life. She will be missed.
