She was also active with the United Methodist Women and various church mission projects. She enjoyed her family, traveling and volunteering. Virginia was a Harmony Grove 4-H leader and 4-H camp counselor in the 1970s. Later, after she retired from teaching, she was a docent for the San Joaquin County Historical Society and Museum.
