Virginia's Story
Well where do I begin??? Born in Newark NJ, Moved to Belford when I was in 7th grade at St Antoninus School went to Leonardo and then onto MTHS and graduated in 1963. I worked for Prudential in Holmdel. Moved to Hobe Sound FL. After a divorce I moved to Jacksonville FL and continued to work for Prudential. It was bought out by Aetna, after working for them for a few years, I retired and went to work for Baptist Hospital in their Medical Records Dept. Retired again because of health issues.
I am currently living in Jacksonville Florida...Retired, single, enjoying the beautiful sunshine. I have 3 AMAZING children, whom I am very proud of, as well as 7 healthy growing grandchildr and 4 great grandchildren. 2 yr old Nova and 1 yr old Kai. Have since added Little Paul and Ivy.
I enjoy life as it comes these days. I take time to smell the roses, as I am sure all of you have realized life is precious. I enjoy doing things such as window shopping, people watching, farmers market, antique malls, boating with my family, playing with my grandchildren. I find myself getting lost in good books often. I attend church on Sundays with my family. I am Excited to hear what everyone else is up to these days and catch up with "yall" as they say here in the south!:)
Everyone is doing well, even me. My oldest daughter, Lisa, has breast cancer, in remission for 9 yrs now. . She is a Paralegal. She is married and they have two children a son and daughter. My grandson is 6'8 I call him my little giant. I dont even come up to his shoulder. He is 27 and working construction and my granddaughter is 28. She is so beautiful and a great girl.. Got married 12/27/20 and has a beautiful little boy, K...Expand for more

My son Jim, was a Paramedic until he had stroke he has 5 children, 4 boys and a girl. The oldest boy is 27 and is is an Engineer.. My 22 year old grandson is going to a Gainsville for college.. He wants to work with the big cats. Lions, tigers oh my. . The youngest is my granddaughter and she is 18. She is a beautiful little girl. Of course as her grandmother I can't think anything else. She is in 12 th grade and doing very well..Twins were born in Aug 2016. That should be fun since parents are both in their 50's. Twins are now 7.
My youngest daughter Tara, has her own business as a Hair Stylist. She is doing very well, she has been in business for quite awhile now. She is single.. Maybe one day I'll have another grandchild to spoil. If she ever finds someone she thinks she wants to spend the rest of her life with. For now she is a foster parent for a baby that she got when she was 4mo old, she will be 1yr in Dec. We call her Bella. The baby that always smiles no matter what. She is such a joy to be around..Bella is now ours she was adopted this year.
God has truly blessed me with a great family and friends..
Well my twin grandsons are now 7 and what a handful. Love them to pieces, Twins friends one minute and ready to kill each other the next.
Well another year older. Never thought I would say this but miss high school. Wish I could go back. Didn't realize they would be the best years of my life. I miss everyone. Even some of the teachers. Wish I would have paid more attention. Well life goes on, I guess its better than the alternative. Love and good wishes to all.
