Virginia's Story
Hi! After many years of working in the apparel industry in Manhattan, I married Kevin on Feb. 11, 2000. We live in Dallas, TX - Kevin's hometown. I'm a full-time housewife, a part-time photography student, a part-time darkroom lab tech, co-founder of Sparky's Pals, on the board of directors, and the Vice-President.

Kevin and I are owned by four furry children, Bubba, Ripley, Murphy and Kaitlin.

In honor of our dog Sparky, who passed away in June 2005, Kevin and I started a non-profit Humane Education organization in March of 2006. It is called Sparky's Pals. Visit us at sparkypals.org. We miss Sparky and would rather have him with us, but Sparky's Pals lets us keep his memory alive.
