Virginia was a great bookkeeper of birthdays, anniversaries of everyone in her family. She spent many years dedicated to the Elmira Heights American Legion Women’s Auxiliary for which she was a lifetime member and her countless years of working and honoring all American Veterans in every branch. Her kids knew where to find her if she wasn’t home, she would be there. We called it her second home. She served in many positions throughout her years as President, Vice President, treasurer and secretary alongside her best friends, Helen Northrup and Mille Carson and she also called bingo and did countless receptions. Family and friends are invited to call on Wednesday, March 4th from 12 to 2 pm at the James D. Barrett Funeral Home. Funeral services will take place there at 2 pm with Pastor Richard Hack officiating. Interment will follow in Maple Grove Cemetery.
