    I am so sorry about the loss of Virgil. He was a wonderful, kind and loving man. I know that he always, along with Laura made both myself and my husband Steve Wilson feel like we were basically a part of your family. I remember him driving to Lafayette pretty much daily when I was there and my Drs wouldn’t let me go home. I also remember Virgil being part of my entourage when I had to go to Bakers funeral home to start on Steve’s funeral. I have lots of wonderful memories of him. I feel very honored and blessed that he was a part of my life. I’ve always thought the world of him and Laura. I hope that the family keeps this thought with them through this difficult time in their lives. A friend gave me this advice a few weeks ago before I attended another funeral. My friend told me “That God loved him more than we did.” I didn’t want to believe it at first but after it sank in it really started to make sense to me and I hope that it does to all of the other people that knew and loved Virgil. He’ll never really be gone, he will always live on through his family and all of his stories. He was a great man who will always live forever in our hearts. You are in God’s hands now. So you are now free to do what you want to do again. Miss and love you my friend.

    So sorry for your loss. Virgil and Laura both were great neighbors and friends to my parents over the years. I remember them always square dancing together for years and working with the cows in the barn lot all the time when we would turn on the gravel road to go home, Hugs and prayers to you all. I keep up on all of you, as Joan Dillman is in the same assisted living place as my Mom.
