Virginia Mae Street (Glass)
Virginia Mae Street went to the big ranch house in the sky on June 5, 2018. We know she was greeted there by her greatly missed husband of 58 years, Lowell (AKA “Red”), who no doubt, held down the fort until his “Ginny” could be with him again.
Knowing her love of taking in strays, we are certain she was also greeted by every stray dog and cat that has ever passed away between Illinois and Arizona.
The world is a lesser place with her absence, but forever enriched by the memory of this great lady’s quiet grace, gentle kindness and wicked sense of humor. Ginny loved a good practical joke & was never above being part of some great scheme or plot to gig anyone in the family.
Barely reaching 4’10”, what she lacked in height, she made up for in personality. She believed in God, human kindness and ice cream at bedtime.
She will be dearly missed by her two children, Michael Street and Patricia Beeks, six grandchildren, numerous great-grandchildren and several great-great grandchildren.
In lieu of flowers, if you ever pass an animal shelter, swing in and throw a couple of bucks at them and tell them it’s from “Lucy.”
A visitation was held on Monday, June 11, 2018; followed by a Celebration of her Life at Ruggles- Wilcox Funeral Home, 517 Clay Street, Arkadelphia, Arkansas. Interment will followed at Jones Cemetery in Brown Springs. Sign the online tribute page at www.ruggleswilcox.com.
