Virginia Mae Street

Virginia Mae Street went to the big ranch house in the sky on June 5th, 2018. We know she was greeted there by her greatly missed husband of 58 years, Lowell (AKA "Red"), who no doubt, held down the fort until his "Ginny" could be with him again. Knowing her love of taking in strays, we are certain she was also greeted by every stray dog & cat that has ever passed away between Illinois & Arizona. The world is a lesser place with her absence, but forever enriched by the memory of this great lady's quiet grace, gentle kindness and wicked sense of humor. Ginny loved a good practical joke & was never above being part of some great scheme or plot to gig anyone in the family. Barely reaching 4'10", what she lacked in height, she made up for in personality. She believed in God, human kindness & ice cream at bedtime. She will be dearly missed by her two children Michael Street & Patricia Beeks, six grandchildren, numerous great-grandchildren & several great-great grandchildren. In lieu of flowers, if you ever pass an animal shelter, swing in & throw a couple of bucks at them & tell them it's from "Lucy". A visitation will be held at 9 a.m. on Monday, June 11, 2018; followed by a Celebration of her Life at 10 a.m. at Ruggles- Wilcox Funeral Home, 517 Clay St., Arkadelphia. Burial will follow at Jones Cemetery in Brown Springs. Sign the online tribute page at www.ruggleswilcox.com.
