Virginia was employed at the Met and later the Red Apple store for 25 years. With this career she met a lot of people and lifelong friends. Virginia was known for her personality and wit. She was hard not to love, you knew you were loved and how much when she told you her "words of wisdom". Virginia's house never had a doorbell, everyone was always welcome just like her heart you entered as a stranger and left as a friend. Virginia over the years opened her life and heart to many people. She loved calling the young ones her adopted children and grandchildren. She loved them like her own and the feelings were mutual with these relationships. Virginia's most precious prides and joys were her grandchildren known as baba's boys and baba's girl. These were her angels on earth. She loved to hear about their accomplishments, standing beside them as their biggest fan and giving them encouragement along the way.
