She was born Virginia Dela Rosa on January 24, 1940, to Nolberto Dela Rosa and Simona Martinez Dela Rosa. Virginia grew up in Coleman and attended school in Burkett. She married Robert Villegas on January 10, 1959, in Plainview, Texas. With this union, five children were born. Virginia and Robert relocated to Coleman in 1975 where they have made their home ever since.

Virginia worked in housekeeping, the local dry cleaners, and Stemple Manufacturing. Her true calling was being a caregiver to her family and friends. She had the kindest heart and overflowing generosity when it came to caring for others. Virginia was a member of the Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Coleman and was a member of the Guadalupana Society. Virginia also enjoyed watching her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren participate in their sporting activities. Her most favorite past time was dancing with the love of her life, Robert. She leaves behind an amazing legacy for her family to live by. Her home was always open for those who needed a place to stay or a meal to eat.
