Aside from being an amazing mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, Virginia was an incredibly talented artist who loved to paint some of the many different lighthouses, landscapes, sunrises and sunsets that she witnessed on the countless family vacations to the ocean. She deeply loved to listen to and spread the word of God and praying. She greatly enjoyed sharing a cup of coffee and a conversation with a loved one, camping, gardening, crocheting, cooking, baking and traveling but the moments Virginia treasured the most, were those she spent with family.
