On June 16th, 1933, a little girl was born

to Selma and Frank Habegger.
They named her Virginia Ellen.

The little girl grew…

and grew.

She became a nurse in 1953.

She married Gene S. on October 3rd, 1953.

Together they raised 4 children: Jan, Steve, Jill, and Kim.

Years later, Kim married Mike, and a few years after that, I came along.

In 2003, Virginia and Gene celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary.
My grandma was beautiful, sweet, funny; she was devoted to her Lord; she had a servant’s heart; she sang and helped and organized and served and loved…and was loved.
I love you, Grandma. I miss you. I’ll see you soon.

The pictures are a beautiful remembrance; from her beautiful heart came joy and laughter and love, and you can see it twinkling in her eyes. The joy of the Lord was her strength and her presence was a blessing to many.
You had a wonderful, worshipful, and sometimes whimsical grandmother, and we loved her too.
