"Jinja" Virginia Archibald entered heaven gates on 1/26/21.  She was reunited with her beloved son "Jay" Archibald and other extended family members.  She was always ready to hop on the motorcycle with "DJ" and ride the countryside waiting for their next adventure.

Virginia Archibald was born 2/9/48.  She spent her younger years in Lynn Ma. wreaking havoc there and moved to Florida to finish her job.  She married Don Archibald on 9/30/72.  She was a mother of 4 children (Kerri Cunningham, spouse Danny Cunningham, Randi Archibald, Donald J Archibald Jr, Jason Archibald), and a second mom to many.  You always knew where you stood with her and her beliefs.  She did not hold back; she was stubborn as a mule.

She loved her 4 grandchildren Collin Archibald, Dylan Archibald, Cassidy Archibald, and Aubrie Hataway, who were the light of her life, along with her daughter in law Amy Rowan.  Her daily life was surrounded by her husband, family and friends.  She loved her monthly lunches with "the girls", Captain Morgan, the U. S. Military Vets MC, and the New England Patriots.  She loved all things military and was especially proud of her husband, nephew, and grandsons' service to our country.  She was proud of her law enforcement family.

She was the family glue.  Even though she got the Christmas list wrong this year and we had to improvise, we just called it a mom thing.  It all worked out in the end. We all have our funny stories with her and those are the ones we want to remember.  She loved life and just about everyone in it.  We are honoring her wishes and not having a service because we have too.  She always said she would come back and haunt us.

She will live on in our hearts, thoughts, minds, and eventually our laughter.  Remember to live life to the fullest and laugh.  Raise a drink in her honor and laugh.  In her words Covid sucks!
