In Loving Memory of
Virginia Wall
October 24, 1940 – January 15, 2021
A Celebration of Life was held on January 22, 2021 at 11:30 AM EST
Our beloved Mother, Grandmother, Great Grandmother, Sister, Aunt, Cousin and Friend, Virginia Wall was called home to be with the Lord on January 15, 2021. She lived a virtuous life and demonstrated unconditional love and generosity to everyone she knew.
Virginia was the eldest of six children born to Alberta and Dupree McNair on October 24, 1940 in Bennettsville, South Carolina. After various schooling and training she entered the workforce and excelled in a career as a Nurses Aide. She married Jerome D. Wall and out of this union, they had two children Donal and Laura.
After retiring from Evergreen/Buttonwood Hospital, Virginia continued her selfless service fostering children up until the day she transitioned She was truly a mother to many. She continued to volunteer at Deborah Hospital for over 30 years. When she wasn’t volunteering her love and time, she enjoyed conversing and visiting with close friends and family, going out in the fields to pick fruits and vegetables and took countless pictures to capture precious memories. Most of all she enjoyed fellowshipping at her home church True Vine Memorial Baptist Church. Virginia dedicated her life to Christ and faithfully served her church. She was honored to serve as a trustee, usher, and remained a faithful member. Last but certainly not least Virginia loved to cook! Anyone who knows Virginia knows her home cooking. She wanted everyone to eat until they couldn’t eat another bite then she would pack up additional containers for them to take home.
She leaves behind to carry on her legacy two children Donal (Angie) McNair, Laura (Anthony) Goode. Five grandchildren, Katrina, Jozlynn, Alanna, Aiden, Donald and one great grandson Mehki. Three beautiful sisters Alice, Roberta, and Louise in addition to a host of nieces, nephews, countless family members and friends. She is preceded in death by her parents Alberta and Dupree McNair, brother Dupree McNair, sister Mamie McNair, and her loving husband Jerome D Wall.
She will be dearly missed by all the lives she touched, and cared for in the 80 glorious years she lived.

The “mother” of a family is always the pillar of the family, strong, devoted, caring and loving. Although we never met your mother I did speak with her a few times while working with Laura and could tell she was strong, devoted, caring and loving. Laura, you are just like your Mom, you have all her traits and then some. Donal, although we never met Laura always speaks highly of you and I am sure you take after Mom also. Sorry for your loss, our thoughts and prayers are with you both and your family.

I have known Laura for over 26 years and while we lived in New Jersey I had the pleasure and honor in meeting her wonderful mother. I can’t and will never forget that smile, which was so inviting and calm. I am honored to have had the opportunity to share the moments and times I did from visiting her home to the family reunions. I know she is a special star in sky shining and that smile as a footprint smiling down on us. May she Rest In Peace.

“Let not your Heart be troubled. He that believes in Him, also believes in Me. And tho your heart may be broken, Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted.” Take comfort in knowing that she is smiling upon you. In every tear and in every smile remember the memories. Remember she loves you all so much. Smile when you think of the times she would mail a care package, just because. Smile. Smile when you think of the many lives she touched and the impact she had on them. Smile and take comfort knowing she is smiling on you. We truly love you! Marion, Ahmad, Mya, Glo, Maggi, Leslie and Karen – From our family to yours –

Aunt Gin was so sweet and I truly enjoyed the summers I spent at her home as a child. She would take all the kids that lived in New York in groups (2 weeks the boys then 2 weeks the girls). My brother and the rest of my boy cousins then it would be my turn along with my girl cousins. We had so much fun doing the various activities she set us for us. We would ride bikes, go swimming, go to great adventures. It was just fun and memorable experience and I thank her for that. Rest In Peace Aunt Gin we love you.
