Virginia Veltri

Administrative Assistant

My pride and joy is my daughter, Corine. She is grown and on her own. We get together often to shop or go to dinner and a movie. I also spend a lot of time with my 4 sisters (Theresa, Sheila, Margaret, and Liz). and keeping up with family news. I enjoy crocheting and taking care of my plants.
