Note

Deceased Name: Death: Virginia Merkley Hacking Giles Our sweet and cherished mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, Virginia Merkley Hacking Giles, has completed her earthly mission. She passed away on February 9, 1998 from complications of cancer at the age of 76.
Virginia was born July 7, 1921 to Asher and Birda Lewis Merkley in Vernal, Utah. She married her sweetheart, Leo E. Hacking, in Evanston, Wyoming on February 14, 1940. They were later sealed in the Salt Lake LDS Temple. This incredible woman touched many lives both far and near. She was a valiant and devoted member of the LDS Church serving in many capacities.

She and Leo served a mission in Columbia, South Carolina. Each year she would raise a garden full of flowers--Iris and Glads were her specialty. After Leo's death, Virginia married Fred N.
