Virginia was the youngest of 14 children born on a farm in Greensboro, N.C. She married at the age of 14 to Lloyd Denson. They were blessed with three children, six grandchildren, 10 great-grandchildren and three great-great-grandchildren.
Mother spent six years in a nursing facility due to Alzheimer's. There she became known as "mother" to everyone. She was also affectionately referred to as the "Broccoli Lady". If she wouldn't eat they told her it was broccoli and she would eat well.
Chapel services were special to her as she loved to sing hymns. She shared the love and power of God to all of them. Many people were healed and touched by her love for God. When she passed there were many tears of wonderful care givers. Thank you to all of them personally from all of us.
One thing I feel I need to share. As mother was being fed breakfast one morning the aid talked to her as she normally would and out of the blue mother said "WE NEED TO PRAY FOR UGANDA TODAY." The aid asked, "What did you say mother?" She repeated it "WE NEED TO PRAY FOR UGANDA TODAY." The aid turned to get another aid to hear her say that and the moment from God had left. The aid came to me and asked if she could tell me something and I of course said sure. She told me what mother said to her and then she told me she is from Uganda and that was the day the war started. She had been worried about all of her family there and God used mother to let her know her family would be safe. That's one I will never forget. Let God use you in any way He can. You never know who needs a word for that day. Kindness speaks volumes without saying a word!
