My sincere condolences to the Torricelli and Bartletti Families on Virginia’s passing. She was always a lovely young girl and lady, such a pleasure to know since we were in high school. Even though we didn’t see each other often over the years, she was always smiling when we ran into each other. Thinking of you all. Linda (Vose) McQuinn

I was shocked and saddened to hear of Virginia's passing. She touched so many lives. How blessed we all were to have her in our lives. Rest in peace, Virginia. I will miss you, my friend. My thoughts and prayers are with Joe and the Bartletti and Torricelli families.

So glad I got to speak to her 3 days before she was gone. Such a warm positive presence she exuded. Caring and kind and so comfortable to be with. She is well remembered and will be missed by many.

My thoughts are with all those who are missing Virginia. We were quite a class at Ursuline but she made us a family. Gin, you made such a mark!  Mary Ryan

My deepest condolences to Joe  and the Torricelli family. Virginia was such a special person, everytime I saw her it was a smile and a hug. Whether we spoke for 2 minutes or 20, she made me feel better about life. She was a special lady and will be missed. My deepest sympathies

Unfortunately we won’t be able to make Virginia’s services. I worked with both Joe & Virginia for 30 years at the department of Revenue & both were great individuals. I remember her smile & scenes of humour. She was a kind & funny.  My heart goes out to Joe & all family members. We will keep Virginia in our hearts, thoughts & prayers. Fondly  Kathy & Steve Frank

I was very saddened to hear about Virginia. I pray that all the family is comforted knowing how much she is loved and will be missed. I thank God for placing her in my life as a friend.

I will always remember how she made me feel so happy!!!  Virginia’s smiles, laughs, and funny quips; she was awesome to be around and to have as a Revenue friend.  I saw Joe last year and was able to talk about how good everyone was doing!  Seeing her family pictures on FB, she was living a fun-loved life💞.  I am so blessed to have known Virginia 💞🙏🏼

Virginia was larger than life.  Every encounter  with her was filled of laughs. So may great memories.  We will miss her so very much.  We loved Virginia.  Our hearts go out to Joe and the Bartletti and Torricelli families.   Roz and Susie Petrilli

So saddened to see this.  May she Rest In Peace.

Virginia,  How sad I am that you're gone. I have many fond memories we have shared but the favourite has to be showing you around the irish gypsy haulting sites where they lived trying not to get caught or in trouble 🤭 we laughed about it for hours.  Will miss you dearly. Thank you for everything you ever did for me and my family. One of your Irish, Rebecca x

Wow what can we say?  Virginia was larger than life.  She will be missed by so many that had the opportunity to be her friend. We were so shocked by her passing.   A stranger could talk to Virginia for 5 minutes and instantly be her friend.  Words that describe her: kind, caring, generous, a great listener, patient , crazy, talented, a pain in the butt,  a gem, dependable, and so much more.  She loved her family and she will be truly missed by us and so many more.  Our hearts go out to Joe, her mom, brothers, and all her nieces, nephews, and grandkids that she loved and bragged about so often.

My love and prayers are with all of you.  Karen Springer

So sorry Joe for your loss. Virginia loved you, her family and friends with all of her heart and soul. May her memories comfort all of you now and always. I cannot make the services but my prayers are with all of you.

One of my favourite memories is a wedding we attended 5th November 2016.  Ireland rugby played the All Blacks at Soldier Field that day and Virginia, always resourceful found me a live blogg to keep track of the score.  Ireland recorded a famous victory that day.  We had such a fun time at the wedding.  Events later at the bride's hotel and our own motel had us laughing until our sides hurt.  I'll miss Virginia, her quick wit, kindness, generosity and love.  My sincere condolences to Joe, her mum, and the entire family circle.  From your Irish friend Joan, Dublin, Ireland x

Joe & Family, We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Virginia was a very special person who touched many lives she will be deeply missed.   Randy & Beth Browning
