Virginia had a passion for traveling, crafting, and dancing, and she never missed an opportunity to go shopping or to enjoy an evening out listening to music and having dinner. Family was at the center of her world, she cherished time spent with her nieces, nephews, and great-nieces and nephews, never missing a chance to spoil them. Whether it was a family cookout, a trip to a flea market, or a weekend spent yard sale hunting, Virginia was always on the go, making memories with those she loved. She had a generous heart and would do anything for her family.
She is survived by her siblings: Thomas (Teresa) Tribe; Nora (Bill) Hatchew; Dale (Mary) Tribe; and Schar (Jason) VandenBerg, as well as numerous nieces, nephews, and great-nieces and nephews who will forever hold her close in their hearts.
