    Virginia was a very good mother-in-law to my son James Stewart, and an very good grandmother to her grandchildren. I thank the Lord for her being in their lives, and me getting to know her.
    We shared a number of family gatherings together over the years.
    My heart goes to the families.
    She is finally at rest with her Heavenly family and Ted and Kevin.

    I never saw Virginia without her putting a smile on my face. She will certainly be missed by all who knew her. I am proud to have known her and Ted and call them my friend.
