At an early age, Virginia gave her life to Christ and joined the Ebenezer Missionary Baptist Church in Knob Lick, KY. Virginia attended Bunche High School and later completed her GED. She did not stop there but continued her education and graduated with her CNA Licenses. She would always make a joke that she was a nurse and doctor. She married the love of her life, Robert Edward Forrest on December 25, 1963. There was never a dull moment in there fifty-two blissful years of marriage. Through thick and thin and for better or for worse, they never left one another's side. They are both now resting in the arms of the LORD. Virginia was very outgoing individual and never met a stranger. She enjoyed life itself. She had a love for cooking and feeding people. She wanted everyone to get full! She also loved traveling, sewing, playing spades, farming, hunting, fishing, and camping. However, her greatest love was for her FAMILY. This included assisting in the raising of her sister after her mother passed. Virginia stepped up and started raising her other siblings, Lee Kirkpatrick, who lived with them for over ten years and her nephew Laronzo Smiley. This continued as her grandchildren and great-grandchildren came into her life. As a part of loving her family, she always remembered everyone's birthday without the aid of a computer. She truly loved her family! Virginia worked as a Nurses Aide. She was an owner and operator of Forrest's Grocery Store and Restaurant in Savoyard, where she loved seeing everyone happy from her cooking. She also had a love for running Forrest's Lake where she could interact with people in a positive environment and build long lasting relationships. She was the type of owner that wanted everyone to catch a big fish. Virginia will be remembered for her strong will and determination. No job was ever too big or too small for her to tackle. As her health began to fail, she would never let it stop her from taking care of the things that meant so much to her. In her last days, she was yet determined to feed everyone around her at the hospital. Virginia departed her earthly place for heavenly home on Friday, October 7, 2022 at the age of seventy-six years old. She was preceded in death by her parents, Jessie and Geraldine Kirkpatrick.
