Virginia and Gordon owned and operated the Children's Corner Pre-School and Child Care Center from 1984 to 2002. Her passion and love for children and teaching made their pre-school a special place for all their kids and their co-workers for 25 years. Virginia will be remembered always for her laughter and her "gift for gab". The friendships she made from college, the church, and the daycare were forever dear to her.
