Virginia Mae Hayes was the second child born to Jefferson Bert Hayes and Hazel Marie Miner. She grew up in Warren, Ohio and married Dennis Woodrow Wilson Wheeland on August 30th, 1944. They had four children together which turned into ten grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.
Virginia, or Mae as everyone knew her, lit up at the site of the children in the family. She loved all kinds of music and was known for having a very open-mind on the subject. I am her granddaughter and I think the thing I remember most about her was that even though she was "Grandma" she liked a lot of the same music I do.
I remember going to visit and hoping and praying on the way to her house that she was making porcupine balls. Or her telling us kids that we had to be quiet because she had one of her famous cheese souffles in the oven and didn't want it to fall.
The thing that I admired most about my grandmother, and always will, was her heart. She was everything to everyone and then some. She was our best friend, mother, second mother to some, aunt, sister, grandmother and great-grandmother. She was our guardian angel on earth and is now watching over us all from Heaven. We loved her then and forever will.
