Virginia J. Michaud, born Oct. 14, 1937, the youngest daughter to Pearl Clark Lyons Jandreau (Presque Isle) and Delbert Lyons (Portage). She was born in Portage and attended schools in Portage and Ashland, Maine.
Virginia married the love of her life, Leonide Michaud, on June 4, 1955.

Virginia worked 25 years at the Hathaway. After retiring she and Leonide enjoyed helping their children do various jobs around their homes. She enjoyed the simple things in life such as long walks with her grand “dog”, snowshoeing, quilting, baking and taking day trips back to her hometown of Portage Lake with her daughter Aldia.
Words cannot express our thankfulness to our brother Earl and sister-in-law Kelly for all their heartfelt guidance, support and care they gave our mom during this difficult time.
