Sending love and prayers to all my cousins. My Aunt Virginia will live in my heart forever. With many memories and conversations with her. She was a wonderful person with lots of love she gave to everyone. Her rhubarb recipes will always be a huge hit. Her high pitched voice with her hands on her hips will forever live with me and make me smile every time I think of her. RIP Aunt Virginia. Always your niece, Linda Pitsch
