I loved Virginia and her whole family. I'm so sorry, Teresa. I'm just seeing this. Prayers & Love! she always so sweet when we would go over her house after church with Teresa...quite a few times. I'll never forget your Daddy either. He would lift us all up on your horse and led us all for strolls. They both loved you so much.
