My condolences to Virginia’s family. Virginia was a wonderful lady, always a smile on her face. I knew her and Dick for many, many years from First Baptist Church in Augusta. Loved going out to their cabin south of Augusta and fishing. She will be missed but know there is a reunion going on inside the gates of heaven. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Beautiful video tribute to one of God’s angels.
Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
