After 36 years of living and raising their family in Hoxie, Birney and Virginia made the difficult decision to leave the only place they had ever called home to embark on a new journey in Kearney, NE. Virginia had many hobbies that kept her busy. She enjoyed working in the yard and had the most beautiful, green thumb. She had an amazing talent of bringing failing plants back to a glorious existence. When she wasn’t tending to her plants, you could catch her watching for the robins, blue jays and the ever elusive cardinals. Virginia loved to spend time walking and exercising. Other interests include golf, fishing, needle point, and dabbling in origami. While all of these hobbies kept her busy, her love and devotion to her faith was of utmost importance to her. She loved her husband, girls, and grandchildren, and they were the most important thing in the world to her.
