Virginia Lee Lord passed away peacefully in the arms of her daughter 
Carla Rouch in the early evening hours on January 27, at Providence 
Hospital.

Virginia "Gini," was born in Cushing, Oklahoma on October 23, 1929 to 
William Holsted and Kathryn Norris Holsted. The family moved to 
California during the infamous Dust Bowl migration. She was educated 
in Los Angeles and graduated from USC. She was a USC Trojan fan all 
her life.

She was preceded in death by her father; baby brother, Robert; and 
two husbands, Frank Walters and Howard Lord.

She is survived by her devoted and loving companion, Donald Jordan; 
her dear and loving daughters, Shanda Jones and Carla Rouch; son-in-
law, James Rouch; her brothers, Harold Holsted, Stanley Holsted; 
devoted sister-in-law, Florence Holsted; two granddaughters and two 
great granddaughters. She had many cousins, aunts and uncles in the 
mid-west and nieces and nephews on the west coast. She loved each and 
every one of them.

A private service will be held at a later 01 Apr 2007. In lieu of 
flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Parkinson's 
Disease Assoc. 3181 Sam Jackson Park Rd., Mackenzie Hall 2200, 
Portland, OR. 97239.

Good bye Sugar! Our cup runneth over!
