of Conway, AR
March 8, 1930 - January 12, 2021
Virginia Gray Deckelman Hansen departed this life for her heavenly home on January 12, 2021, from Conway Regional Hospital. She was born on March 8. 1930, in Harrisburg, AR, to the late Willam T. Gray and Dovie Aston Gray. She was preceded in death by her husband, James B. Hansen; one sister, Sylvia Till; two brothers, William A. Gray and Abby Gray.
Left to cherish her memory are one sister, Bert Goucher of Marion, AR; one son, Charles Deckelman and wife Diane of Clinton, AR; one daughter, Brenda Hogue of Conway, AR; four grandchildren, Eric Deckelman and wife, Carol of Clinton, AR, Aimee Cox and husband, Jeff of Conway, AR, Malcolm Hogue of Conway, AR, Harry Hogue and wife Kyra, of Aurora, CO; 3 great-grandchildren, Maggie Deckelman, Aubrey Cox, and Aiden Cox, several nieces, nephews, and many friends.
She loved working and had a strong work ethic. Always energetic, faithful, and dedicated, she continued to further her education.
She was a very generous, helpful person. She was the most loving, giving, attentive mother and grandmother, always eager to help and did so joyfully. She loved animals (Junior) and rescued many. She loved spending time out-of-doors, gardening, going to flea markets, shopping, visiting friends, always on the go. She will be incredibly missed and forever lovingly remembered.
I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, Phil 1:3.
A graveside service will be held at a later date.

Well,I certainly loved this lady. From the time I was a teenage girl spending time in my best friends home around Mrs Virginia and in the later years after my mom died,I admired her. She was one of the strongest women I'll ever know in my life. If only more women could be like her- tough,resilient,caring,hard working,lively and active. They don't make em like Grandma Ginny anymore. Still here her on the phone with me,saying" love you,bye." And love her I do,always.
