Virginia is survived by her son, Steven; daughters, Sue and Colleen (Michael) and 3 grandchildren, Tony Erin and Marisa. She was preceded in death by her husband, Tony; and brothers, Paul, Kenneth, Ellsworth, Vincent and Roy. The Eskra family would like to thank Hospice of Northwest Ohio, Virginia’s personal nurse, Renee whose vigilance and compassion of care will not be forgotten, and to all those at Home Instead, who provided around the clock care for her.
