Born to Lee and Lela Tuttle Ross on Sep 6, 1916 in Shawnee, OK. Virginia was the baby of 6 children. She finished her race on earth on Nov 1, 2010 and was warmly greeted by our Lord and Savior and the many loved ones that had gone before her. Throughout her life, she worked various jobs though her greatest joy was being a homemaker. She taught the adult Sunday school class and Bible study in her retirement years. Grandma enjoyed fishing, sewing, writing poetry, cooking, gardening, and loved helping others. She loved life! She married our Grandpa, Leland “Omer” Sherrill on Sep 30, 1939.
