When I think of Viginia it always makes me smile. I have so many stories, but my favorite times were spent with her and Claudine Patterson at Claudine's cabin. After Virginia had walked the dog down the lane we would sit and chat for what seemed like hrs. I could never get enough of both of them. Reading some of the others I too remeber the last few years of her driving. Such strong mountain women. Love to you and she will always remain in our hearts. Jody and Bob Lidgett

Trudy,
I would always stop by and see Virginia when I was walking my dog Libby.  Virginia would invite Libby inside and then feed her dog cookie after dog cookie.  Virginia certainly loved all animals and loved to have visits, particularly after she lost her own dog.  For quite a few years, I would send Virginia a box of Hersey's chocolates at Christmas time.  She definitely was a ""chocolaholic""!  Of course, I always enjoy chatting with you and your Mother when you came to the Meadow Mountain Cafe for lunch.  Of course I will admit, I was a little relieved when she stopped driving!!!  My thoughts and prayers are with you and I very much enjoying knowing your Mother and was inspired by her love of animals and nature.

Dear Trudy,
     You won't know who I am but I was a student at Colorado State College & worked part time in the reference room at the library from 1957-59.  It was there I meant your mother, Mrs. Costello.  At first I thought she would be hard to get along with but as time went by I enjoyed her wonderful sense of humor.  Of course her knowledge of where books were to be found when professors or students wanted material for a higher degree was extraordinary.  Way back at that time one had to be quiet in a library & Mrs. Costello inforced that rule.  She always tiptoed around going shhhhhhhhh with her finger to her lips.  She did it with a lightness that made everyone follow the rule!!  One day an inflated globe lost air & she tiptoed up to the globe & proceeded to blow it up.  Quite a few students were there & they all clapped for her.  That's one time the library was noisy.  Mrs. Costello also took a bow!   She made my time at work a little more fun.  I've always remembered her & her sense of humor.
  Thank you for letting me share my thoughts.  With sympathy,
Louanne Hallock Timm

I always enjoyed being with Virginia --  her lovely smile and a positive attitude were only two of her many attributes.  She was extremely engaging and interesting and loved people.  Her knowledge of a multitude of subjects always amazed me.  She was a true lady -- beautiful inside and out.  Her love of living in the mountains was evident.  I know she will be greatly missed by her family and many friends.

I knew Virginia through my close friend, Margaret Mulroney. I visited her in Allenspark several years ago and said I would return, but failed. I'm sorry! Virginia was a good person. I would like to have been with her more.
