  2. Virginia’s strength of spirit always impressed me. She was strong for her family whom she loved and especially grandchildren whom she adored. I know this through our many conversations at ACT where we worked together for years. I was blessed to have experienced first hand how much positive energy Virginia brought with her to work each day. When we had assembly projects, it was, “Where’s Virginia? We need her.” Packing lines? “…we need Virginia…” She was an important member of an honorable team of employees and was greatly missed when she did leave the company a few years ago. I appreciated how much she shared her creativity and sewing skills with us. When I retired, despite being ill, Virginia attended the party and gave me a set of towels that she had personally embroidered with the days of the week. I initially put them in a drawer for safe-keeping. I brought them out some months ago so that I could think of Virginia as I used each day’s towel and be reminded of the many blessings she brought into my life. I will miss her terribly. My deepest sympathy to Virginia’s family.

  4. John and family Wanted to send my sympathy to all of you. Ginny was ALWAYS one of my favorite relatives. She was so easy to talk to, even when I was a little kid and we were all at the cabin or at Franks house. We had a great talk the last time I seen her. She will be greatly missed by all of us. Thinking of all of you, Nancy Welsh
