Virginia Rowe (Wallace)
CHARLO — Virginia Rowe (Wallace) 81, passed away on July 13, 2024, from complications from a fall. She was born on Oct. 14, 1943, to a mining family in Wallace, Idaho. As a young child, she frequented her grandparent’s property in Lincoln. She officially made Charlo home in 1970. In Charlo she meant many of her closest friends and raised her three children.
Virigina loved to can and sew. She spent many late nights, after long shifts, canning or making cloths. She could always be counted on for some how-to tip on making just about anything. Virginia was never short for conversation. It was impossible to stop in for a quick trip to her house. She always greeted people with conversation a big glass of iced tea and usually a card game.
Later in life, after the loss of her eyesight, she would sit and remiss about all the fun times she had camping, and traveling. Visits from her great-grandbabies, always put a smile on her face.
There will be a potluck celebration on Sept. 15, at Leon Hall in Charlo starting at 12 p.m., all who knew her and would like to share stories are welcome.
