Bob & Ginny were dear friends of mine and I was privileged to serve with them in the Virginia Air national Guard and to perform their wedding ceremony. Family, you are forever in my prayers and thoughts.

Dear Bill, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family especially during this sad time. I am fortunate to have had Ginny as my secretary during my time with the VaANG, and she will always be a bright spot in my memories and life. I especially appreciate her support during those difficult years after my divorce; she was supportive and loving not only to me but to my kids as well. I know you're grieving deeply now and will for a long time, but I pray the happy memories of her will be constant companions for you until you and she are reunited again in heaven, free from sickness and tears! If I can help or be of service, don't hesitate to call.
