    I remember when I first married Denny and how awkward I felt the first Christmas and how Virg came up and started chatting. I felt much better I can’t remember today what he said but it made me laugh. I always looked forward to seeing him every holiday. He was so love by all and he loved us all. I so sorry he is gone but he touched so many lives and hid memory will live on forever. Esther and Virg were such kind people she always gave me a hug. I I’ve them so much. May God give you all peace at this time as I know it is hard. You have my most heart felt sympathy. Rest in peace Virg
