There were a lot of things I didn't get to tell you, ranging from telling you goodbye to, the fact that you are beautiful. Everytime you made a joke that you weren't pretty or just didn't looks all that well I wanted to scream that you are indeed beautiful. But for some reason a lump would form in my throat and all i could do was laugh along nervously as we move on the a next subject. While we were standing there in the hospital a while after you were first emitted, i didn't know what to say. I can write things out quite well but saying them is always a challenge for me...but even now I cant say much. I can only hope that you are happy and with people willing to talk past that lump in their throat. I love you granny.

I have always thought a lot of Virginia. As a young child I remember her and Linda coming to Oak Grove Church. She was always so kind to me. She kept up with me and even came to Oak Grove where I am now pastor a few years ago to visit. Always friendly when I met her anywhere. She was a good friend that was loved and will be missed.

My dearest Aunt Ginny,
It has been years since I've been to Arkansas and seen you. Some of my fondest childhood memories were made at your house. I remember spending some of my summers down with you and I cherish these memories. You were always so caring and thoughtful, Beautiful inside and out. You will forever have a special place in my heart.
Until we meet again!
Love,
Sandra (Cindy Jones) Henrich
