Virginia was predeceased by her husband of 38 years, Edward L. Schott in 1985 and Estill Dotson in 2001. She was the youngest of eleven children, all of whom predeceased her. They were Gertrude Finney, Alma Rose, Herbert Rose, Hazel Roman, Etta Sue Rose, James Rose, Helen Casteel, Margaret Wheeler, Anna Mae Nelson, and Pauline Grimes.

She was a dedicated and hard-working member of the East Bernstadt Fire Department Board of Directors for more than 40 years. The department was founded by her husband, Edward and other community members in 1965. She served as the board secretary for more than twenty five years.

(1953-1985), owner of Schott’s Hardware (1985-1991), owner and operator of Rainbow Florist, and later in her life as a branch office assistant for David Vickers at Edward Jones Investments (1994-2010). She retired at age 83 and was still very vital until an accident at age 91 changed her life. She was truly blessed in having a loving family, many opportunities to serve her community, and having made so many close friendships in her life.
