She was surrounded by her loving husband and family. Born December, 1939 in Richmond, VA, she was the eldest daughter of the late Louis Arthur Roth Sr. and the late Mary Louise Roth.

Virginia leaves behind her beloved husband, high school sweetheart and lifelong partner of 60 years, Robert Elwood Johnson.
