My sincere condolences to Jay and all his family! When I think of the Wells family, I can't help but remember our paper route days in Poynette. Keep Virginia alive in your hearts. It really does help you in getting adjusted to the loss. After all, the separation is only temporary. We all will be united once again someday...

I don't know what to say; this is such a deep hurt. If I could open my arms wide enough to hold each of you, I would. As it is, know that my heart cries with yours yet rejoices, too, at all the lovely memories I have of Virginia....her beautiful smile and incredible sense of humor, and a generous person in all respects. God bless and strengthen you. All my love!
