I am so sorry for your loss. Ms. Jenny was a wonderful teacher and precious lady. I am glad we got to visit together at the 1968 BHS reunion a few years back. She was always one of my favorite teachers.
To Virginia’s family,
My deepest sympathy for your loss. I was fortunate to meet Virginia through some some close friends that were Shannon teachers. They needed a sub for Bunko.This was in the late 80’s or early 90’s. I became a permanent member and Virginia became a sweet friend for roughly 30 years. We will miss her, but she stepped into the glorious presence of God and is healed and whole again!
