1965, then to Joliet, Illinois in 1974 and finally to Milwaukee, WI
in 1980 which became her permanent residency.

band. The two were inseparable; they were the best of friends.

family, especially her daughter and grandkids, they were her
pride and Joy. There wasn't a day that passed Virgie Jr. didn't
talk about them or her parents. She told family stories over and
over and gave a glimpse of her childhood about growing up and
how strict her parents were. Virgie had a soft spot for children;
she would adopt anyone's children and loved them as her own.
She also enjoyed riding in her car with the top down, cooking,
dancing, playing music, and telling it like it was. Her home was
the gathering place for the family and she was the life of the
party always entertaining them the best way she could.
