Virginia Lee Faulkner, a devoted and caring wife and mother, passed away peacefully on May 29, 2025, at the age of 84.
Born on March 26, 1941, Ginny (as her family called her) lived a life characterized by courage, compassion, gentleness, and faithfulness, leaving a profound impact on all who knew her. Ginny’s faith and her family were the foundation of her life.
She is survived by her loving husband, Francis Xavier Faulkner, Jr.; her children, Francis Xavier Faulkner, III, Colleen Dougherty (Robert), Kathleen Rodriguez (Christopher), Virginia Lee Hall (Allan), and William Joseph Faulkner (Peggy); her cherished grandchildren, Robert Lamb Dougherty, Jr. (Michaela), Tyler Francis Dougherty (Kaila), Thomas Xavier Dougherty, Aimee Virginia Rodriguez, Kathryn Elizabeth Rodriguez (Andrée), Grace Ramin Rodriguez, Victoria Ashley Hall-Greene (Joshua), Lucas Allan Hall (Erin), Maximus Allan Hall (Christina), and Nicholas Allan Hall (Sandra); and her cherished great-grandchildren, Robert Lamb Dougherty, III, Beau Francis Dougherty, Cíllian Seaghdha Oisin Dougherty, Joshua David Greene, Benjamin Nicholas Hall and Anthony Raymond Hall. Ginny is also survived by her sisters, Patricia Ann Fee and Donna Marie Fuller. Ginny’s family, grandchildren, and greatgrandchildren were of pinnacle of importance to her, and she often expressed how deeply she cherished them.
Ginny was greatly influenced by her parents, William Joseph and Virginia Lee (nee Scott) Doyle, who predeceased her, as well as her brother, Michael Doyle. Their faith, values and love shaped her into the caring, compassionate and gentle woman she became. Not only was Ginny a devoted wife and mother, but she was also a devout Roman Catholic. She had a special devotion to the Blessed Mother, St. Francis of Assisi, and St. Joseph. Her faith guided her throughout her life and it was clearly reflected in her discipline of attending Sunday Mass weekly with her family. In addition, it was very important to Ginny to instill the importance of faith to her family.
Ginny will always be remembered by her love, compassion, gentleness, kindness, and selflessness. Memories of her will continue to uplift all those who were fortunate enough to know her.
