Obituary for Virginia "Ginny" Tichenor
Virginia "Ginny" Tichenor, 96, formerly of 76 Pleasant Ave., Pleasantville, NY, passed away on Nov. 12 at the Glen Hill Rehabilitation Center in Danbury, CT. She had been living with her daughter and son-in-law, Marion and John Gallas, since March 2012. Virginia was born in New York City and grew up in Mamaroneck, NY before her mother, aunt (also Ginny), and she moved to White Plains, NY. She graduated White Plains High School in 1936 and soon after married Arthur Taylor, Jr. They had three children, all of whom graduated from White Plains High School. She worked in White Plains as a secretary for prominent appraiser, Harry K. Keller for many years. Later, she loved working at Altman's Department Store until it closed its doors in the 1980's. She moved to Pleasantville, NY in 1986 when she married Herbert Tichenor who pre-deceased her in 1995. She continued living in her beloved Pleasantville where she had many friends and neighbors whose lives she touched. Their caring and giving natures enabled her to live alone there until she was 94 years old. Neighborhood dogs would often steer their owners to her front door for a doggie treat. Everyone remarked of her piercing blue eyes which were accompanied by an infectious smile. She was well loved by her family and friends. Virginia was pre-deceased by her daughter, Marylin Taylor Visconti and her son, Frederick Taylor. She is survived by her daughter, Marion Gallas, four grandchildren, six great-grandchildren, and one great-great-grandson. A memorial visitation will be held at Beecher Funeral Home in Pleasantville on Friday Dec. 12 from 6 to 8 pm. A service will be held at Kensico Cemetery Chapel in Valhalla, NY by her stepson, Rev. Jay Tichenor, on Dec. 13 at 2 pm with interment immediately following. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the ASPCA.
