    I carpooled to RCA with Virginia during the summer of 1976. She was a very sweet and funny lady. My thoughts and prayers are being sent to her family. Cheryl Robbins

    I was so glad that Wilcoxen was included in the obit or I would have missed the notice of her passing. Virginia and I grew up in Dover Hill, IN, a little place that boasts of nine curves. Lots of fun to learn to drive on. We had lots of good times and some sad as well. We both went to work at Traveler’s in Orleans, IN in 1957. It was my first real job and probably Virginia’s as well. By reading her obit, I see she was blessed with a large family and I’m sure you are missing her greatly. Sending my heartfelt sympathy to each and everyone of you. May God give you strength to get through these sad times. He is my source of comfort.

    Marcella and Harold Gene, we are saddened by the passing of Aunt Virginia. She was a wonderful and loving lady. Another Angel has spread her wings. She is now with Danny Lee and Johnny.
