"This somehow just came across my time line. I worked at Ceramic Products with Ginny and we had so many laughs, lunches, talks and she was just such a sweet sweet lady. I see this was over a year ago. Buy my condolences to the family. She was a joy to work with and I will always remember all the good times we had all of those years ago. ??????"

"It was a great pleasure to have worked with Ginny for many years. She was thorough and diligent in every way when she was at her job. But, she was also much more than that. She was kind to everyone, she was thoughtful and wise, and she was invariably straightforward and honest no matter what situation was presented to her. Without a doubt I was better at my job because I was fortunate enough to have known and worked with Ginny. Cliff Sickles"

Jeanette Augustin Salata, granddaughter of Sena ne wrote on Jun 21, 2020:

"Dear Family, this will sound silly, but I always remember how well turned out Virginia was. At Sunday service (to which I was privy most of my childhood!), she had her hair done and a nice outfit. She was a good example to a young girl of how to put your best foot forward. Virginia was also a dear friend to my mother Carol. The good times the two and them and the other cousins had are too numerous to name here. But, I remember their laughter! Mostly, us kids had no idea what the joke was but our moms were happy together and that was good enough for us. Thank you, cousin Virginia, you will be missed by all. "

"Family and Friends of Virginia, My condolences for the loss. Virginia was an example to me of a woman with a cheerful spirit even amid hardships. I am grateful for the last few months of Bible study with her because it strengthened me to not only with more faith but with remembering to always find the good even amid hardships. Judy Sturges"
