The family would like to express its deepest gratitude to Taunya Jenkins, her beloved home aid for the last 2 years. She became so much more than an aide; she was a wonderful companion and has become part of the family. She cared for Virginia with kindness, compassion, and kept her in line when needed. We would also like to extend our thanks to the wonderful hospice care she received from McLean Hospice care.

It was Virginia’s wish that there be no formal services.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that memorials in her honor be made to Mclean Hospice, American Lung Association, Farmington Volunteer Fire/Rescue, or a Volunteer Fire/Rescue service of your choice.
