Add Your Remembrance

I remember my aunt as being a lovely woman. I remember my mother bringing us to her house for visits when we were very young and living in Billings. Virginia was always very nice to us. How interesting it is that she passed away just 45 days after my mother. It seemed like they always had a special bond. My condolences to the whole family.
