Virgil was a person that never met a stranger and would do anything for you, he touched so many people's lives and so many touched his, a special thanks to his Dr.'s and nurses at the VA Dallas, VA Richmond, UTSW and VCU. Virgil had a heart problem starting in the 1990's and was blessed to receive a new heart four years ago this month. He passed away because of a fast spreading small cell carcinoma cancer but his heart was good until his last breath. If you knew Virgil you were a blessed person. He is in a better place but will be missed so much. We will see you soon.
