In Atlantic she was employed for ten years at Hallmark Card and Gift Shop. Virginia and Louis did much traveling to almost every State and many foreign counties. Their son, Steven and wife, Jennifer gave them the rare opportunity to visit Lebanon's ancient ruins and Biblical sites. Later they were accompanied by her grandson, Ben, who took them to European Countries and Magical Ireland, the homeland of Virginia's ancestors. She was the family historian - spending much time researching the Neary and Roberts families of Cornwall England and Galway, Ireland as far back as the 1600's.
