Virginia Cyrus Radford, 76, of Forest died on Tuesday, November 4, 2014. She was the widow of Charles Aaron Radford, her husband of more than fifty years.

Ginny is survived by her son, Charles Edward Radford and his wife, Pat of Aiken, SC; two grandsons: Lt. J.G. Christopher Eric Radford and his wife, Kathleen of Arlington, and Lt. J.G. Andrew Charles Radford of Norfolk; a brother, Willie Burton Cyrus and his wife, Virginia, of Gladstone; a brother-in-law, John Ehnot of Oaks, PA; and a number of nieces and nephews.
A Celebration of Ginny’s Life will be held at Forest Presbyterian Church at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, November 8, 2014, with Rev. Morgan Whitfield officiating. The family will receive friends following the service. Interment will be private.
