Virginia Maynor Mims, died April 13, 2002, in the Hospice Unit of Rex Hospital in Raleigh, N.C. She fought a long courageous battle with COPD. She was born February 8, 1914, in Roanoke, Va., daughter of the late Agnes Irene Miller and Jesse Smith Maynor of Winston-Salem, N.C. She graduated from Reynolds High School in 1932 and received her RN from Winston-Salem School of Nursing at City Hospital in 1938. She married
her favorite Intern on April 9, 1938. She was preceded in death by her husband, Dr. James Lloyd Mims and infant son, Richard Downing Mims and son James Lloyd Mims, Jr., of Lake Moultrie, S.C., sister, Jayne Maynor Gravitt, Ruth Wilson and brother Richard Downing Maynor of Winston-Salem, and her dog, Sands.
She is survived by her daughter, Ginger Alexander of Raleigh; three grandchildren, Ann Wright and husband Terry of St. Augustine, Fla., Heidi Heglar of Cherryville, N.C., and Rhett Heglar and wife Sally of Lincolnton, N.C.; sisters, Elizabeth Maynor Cornelius of Winston-Salem, Mary Agnes M.

Virginia worked as a nurse in her husband's dermatology practice until he retired. She was known by family and friends as the one to call when they were in need of nursing care or a listening ear. She was a life-long member of Home Monrovian Church in Winston-Salem. She was Christened on February 24, 1914, and confirmed April 10, 1927. When there was no Monrovian Church, she maintained her strong faith in neighborhood churches wherever she lived. When she moved to Black Mountain, N.C., from her home on the lake in Bonneau, S.C., she embraced the mountains and her wonderful caregiver, Susan Halford, but missed her longtime friends and family in South Carolina, particularly her wonderful friend, the UPS man, Christopher Joy. Her doors were always open for those in need. Friends from all stations in life and family gathered around her kitchen table to relax. She devoted her entire life to taking care of her family. She was the mother that was always there, the Ganny like none other. She had style and grace and great humor, a bare-footed Auntie Mame who gracefully moved toward heaven, saying, "I'm leaving now, Goodbye, " as she bowed out with dignity to join her Lord. Her strong spirit will be missed by all who knew and loved her. She was a unique child of God.
