Honoring the Memory
of Those
We Love

Virginia "Ginny" Conroy Helm Hughes, 94, loved life, a faithful Catholic who prayed the rosary every day, passed away on Saturday, November 23, 2024, predeceased by her husband Bob, brother Joey Conroy and mother Gertrude Conroy. Ginny will be remembered by her seven beloved daughters, Debbie (Bob )McGurk, Janet Lieb, Patti (Tom)Loadman , Cindy (Mike) Scanlon, Ginny (Mark) Emanuele , Terri (Doug) Watson, Laurie (Mike) Burgman and
son-in-law, Jay Lieb. Also step-children Janice(Bob) Rudolph and Bob Hughes. She is also survived by her 19 grandchildren and 18 great grandchildren.

Ginny so loved her daughters and spent much quality time with them - lunching, going to movies, shopping at Talbots, and beach vacations. She relished family time, and never backed away from spirited political discussions. She also never met a dance floor she didn't like. Ginny was proud of her Irish heritage; visiting Ireland was a dream come true for her. Touring the castles, churches and pubs were some of her favorite memories.
Ginny's legacy is one of unyielding kindness and generosity. Residing at Friendship Village, she became known as one of the "Golden Girls" - everyone wanted a seat at her table. Her friends loved her, respected her and the staff spent countless hours with her exchanging stories and sharing laughs. Not enough gratitude can be given to the staff for the unwavering compassion and loving care they bestowed on Ginny.
She will be greatly missed. The loss is deeply felt by her huge family and all those who knew and loved her. Her memory will live on and inspire strength, resilience and kindness to those whose lives she touched.
To her daughters, she leaves her compassion and wicked sense of humor. To her sons-in-law, she thanks them for loving her daughters unconditionally. And to her grandchildren and great grandchildren, Gram (Gigi) leaves the biggest hugs and kisses. Her family was her sole focus. We Are Family!
