Everyone knew Virgie for her tenacity, perseverance, humor, and her kindness. Virgie’s homemade food was the talk of every family event and holiday. Virgie enjoyed gardening in her flower beds and was a bank of knowledge for how to keep a plant alive. Virgie loved being outside on the swing with the love of her life, her dog Teddy, and a cup of coffee. Cards of condolences can be sent to the Booska family at 83 Green Street, Vergennes, VT 05491.
