Born in Clayton, Virginia was raised briefly in Franklinville before returning to Clayton where she has been a resident for the 80+ years. She enjoyed playing bingo, going to the casinos, and playing lottery and scratch-off tickets. Virginia enjoyed going out to eat, especially at Five Points (later Seven Star) Diner and shopping, especially for shoes. She enjoyed listening to Bluegrass Gospel music and to music by Connie Francis, Loretta Lynn, and Willie Nelson. Virginia also had a great voice and loved to sing. She was a member of the Trinity United Methodist Church in Clayton and a member of the choir. Over the years, Virginia taught a lot of people how to drive. The number one thing she enjoyed doing was spending time with her children, grandchildren, and other family. She was head of five generations and will be dearly missed.
