Serving Waitsburg, Dayton and the Touchet Valley

Virginia (Ginny) Just

April 4, 1937-March 17, 2021

Ginny passed away unexpectedly on March 17, 2021, at St. Mary's Medical Center.

Ginny was born in Kenmore, New York on April 4, 1937. She attended Cleveland Hill High School in Buffalo, NY, Cortland State Teacher's College, majoring in Education, and received her Master's Degree in Education at Eastern Washington University.

While attending Geneseo State, Ginny married her sweetheart, Joseph Just, on August 25, 1958. God blessed Ginny and Joe with 4 children: Mary J Hutsell (Randy), Joseph A Just (Rexanne), James C Just (Polly), and Jason D Just (Stacy); grandchildren: Katie, Miranda, Seth, Eli, Meg, Kate, Aubree, Logan and David; and great-grandchildren: Declan, Farrah, Haiden and Piper.

Ginny was a devout Catholic and became a Franciscan Nun. Ginny enjoyed music, genealogy, cross stitch and knitting "Prayer Shawls". Ginny enjoyed spending time on the water fishing with Joe and catching the "flying fish".

Ginny's love of her life was her friend, partner and guide, Joe. Their love of nature included feeding squirrels ("Sammies") and counting visits of hummingbirds coming to their multiple feeders. There was not a day of her life that she didn't thank God for having put Joe in hers. Ginny and Joe decided to have engraved on their cemetery plot's stone - "Holding Hands Forever".

Funeral will be on April 10, 2021, at 11:00 at St. Mark Catholic Church, Waitsburg, WA. In lieu of flowers, Ginny would prefer contributions be made to Birthright of Walla Walla.
