After high school graduation she left the farm for Washington, DC where she met Charles Douglas Thompson to whom she was married for 47 years until his death in 1993. She is survived by her sister Ceil, her children Kathy and Doug, her grandchildren Emily, Scott and Mark and step grandson Grant, her great grandchildren Caroline, Jack, Tommy, Henry, Sofia, Olivia and James and her step great grandchildren Gavin and Jayson.

Virginia was fun loving and humble. She put everyone before herself and enjoyed life to the fullest. Her favorite things in life included family, Pawleys Island, the Redskins, (not the Commanders!) and Flint Hill Elementary School and staff. She was a dedicated employee at Flint Hill for more than 40 years where she made many lasting friendships. She will be missed by many, but her memories will all be happy ones.

There will be a memorial service on August 27, 2024 11am at Money and King Funeral Home in Vienna, VA.

She will be buried along side her husband in Arlington National Cemetery at a date to be determined
