Virginia Lucille Wood passed away peacefully at her home in Deming, New Mexico on Thursday, March 16, 2017. Virginia was born on March 10, 1923, in Cadillac, MI to her parents Lawrence Cass and Margaret Devoy. Virginia grew up in Cadillac, MI.
Virginia married Robert H. Wood in 1942 and together raised six children: Vicki, Bill, Tim, Kevin, Larry and Kathy in Grattan, MI on Slayton Lake in a house that Bob built three times.
Virginia retired from Amway Corporation after many years of dedication and moved to Summerland Key, Florida. Virginia was surrounded by family and friends and enjoyed doing crossword while having coffee (or drinks) on her front porch while swinging on her swing. Virginia loved to entertain and was always a gracious host who would provide wonderful food and drink to any and all who would cross her doorstep. Virginia held many holiday cocktail parties on Summerland Key to be remembered, some that are still being talked about to this day!
Virginia also enjoyed reading, sewing, cooking and especially gambling across the country and back with her sister, Carrie Helen, her daughters, Vicki and Kathy and really anyone who would go with her!
Virginia was a strong, beautiful, generous, loving woman who will be greatly missed by her family and friends.
Virginia was preceded in death by her long time honey, Bob Wood, her daughter, Vicki Wood, her son, Larry Wood and her grandson, Ryan Bellinger as well her siblings: Dick, Marion and Bill.
Virginia is survived by her children, Tim & Peggy Wood, Belding, MI, Bill & Maxine Wood, Columbiana, Al, Kevin & Joel Lowery Cedar Key, FL, and Kathy & Chris Madsen, Deming, NM. Virginia loved her grandchildren: Brechen, Tiffany, Tim, Eric, Monica, Cal, Jenny, Amber, Bob, Matt, Kassi, Kris, David, Molly, Mitchell, Leslie and was so proud of them. Virginia was also survived by many Great Grandchildren, nieces, and nephews and her siblings – Carrie Helen Stoll, Larry Cass and Judy Gumper.
Special thanks to the Ambercare Hospice especially, Dan and Edna for your loving care and support. The journey would not have been so smooth without you.
Cremation will take place at Terrazas Crematory. Arrangements are with Terrazas Funeral Chapels & Crematory
