Virginia A. Simonetti

Virginia was a truly inspirational woman: she married the love of her life, had a wonderful career, and had a beautiful son. Her drive and determination to do things for herself never ceased to amaze those around her even in her final days. She touched the hearts of each person she met and managed to create lifelong connections. She drew you in either through her contagious laugh or insatiable dance moves. The flooding of cards on holidays and special occasions with personal notes and handwritten letters were just one way to see how truly loved a woman she was. Virginia lived a life most of us only dream of achieving; a life full and rich in people and memories. She precedes her parents, Rose and Eugene; husband, Joseph Leo; and siblings, Bill, Ernie, Eugene, Dorothy, Skin, and Sharon. She leaves behind her son, Joseph Eugene; and daughter-in-law, Dian; grandchildren, Joseph Douglas, Melanie, and Cora; two great-grandchildren; a sister, Irene; nieces and nephews she loved as if her own; and other family and friends whose hearts will always hold a special place for her. We love you, Virginia, thank you for the memories.
