I am very sorry for your loss. Although I did not know Virginia, I know how it feels to lose someone you love and for that reason I want to extend my sympathy and share a few thoughts that have brought me comfort. Psalm 34:18 says that God cares very much when we are broken at heart. Isaiah 25:8 mentions a time when He will swallow up death forever and wipe all the tears from our faces. To have the hope that soon there will be nothing that will cause us pain can help us get through difficult times like this. (John 5:28,29; Psalm 37:11,29) It is my wish you will find comfort and hope from these thougths from the Bible.

I will forever and always think of her and miss our times together. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family. She loved you all so very much.
May you be comforted in knowing that she is in a better place. Losing a parent is so difficult. I think of you two often with fond memories.
