Dear Virginia ...its been a long time since I met you in Memphis and
shared many dinners with you and Donna Jones . We not only did
a radio talk show together ; we talked about life and happiness and
The Lord above. I met other members of your family - your daughter
Debby . Fond memories of you at the Howard Cobb dinner theater
and other events in the mid South.
You cared enough about me , to visit me in the Hospital and say
prayers at my bedside . You were a great friend and I still have the
photo of you - with the personal message on the back to me.
You will always be thought of by the many people whos lives you
touched.

I remember being at the MidSouth Fair . It was hotter than blue-blazes . We ate snow cones

and walked our legs off. They had a cage set up with a Lion ( with Teeth ) so you could get

your photo taken with the Lion. Donna wanted to do this and asked me to do it with her ;

I said H--- No !  She did it !  Gutsy lady ----- Virginia & I watched from outside. I think

Virginia would have also done this ; she had no fear. Virginia drove this really nice white-

cream collored  "Caty" !  She loved that car ... Debbie & her daughter went their way

afterwards and ( after we left the FAIR ) Virginia , Donna and Me went to one of our

two  hour dinners at a Great Restaurant in Memphis. I think Virginia bought the meal !

Virginia lived life to the fullest and she treated her friends ( Donna & I ) like we were

Family and told us ----she loved us . She was a special giving Person !

Ole ' Memphis Friend

December 5, 2016

I did not know she passed away.  We were close friends in Memphis from 1985
to 1988 ,  Virginia was a giving person.  We ate dinner together many times
over the years. Donna Jones also went with us.  They were at that time close
friends.

Virginia and I did a Radio Show together . Call in show on WMC 790 . Her
daughter  "Debbie " would also sometimes be on the show. I met some of
other members of her family while in Memphis.  I think we also went to
the Howard Cobbs Gas Light dinner theater.  Virginia came to visit me while
in the Hospital after a surgery and She actually stayed all night with me as
she fell asleep in a chair next to my bed - she was a giving person and a
People Person.
I felt bad we had not kept in touch thru the years . I left Memphis for another
radio station and time went bye.

I will always remember Virginia for her kindness to me and her thoughtful
ways. With love always , her friend .
