Dr. Virginia L Cummins

December 24, 1942 - December 14, 2020

Virginia was born in Newark, New Jersey to Joaquin and Dorothy (Alcott) Llanso. She spent the first years of her life in Buenos Aires, Argentina then returned to the U.S. with her family in her early teens. Following her 1965 graduation from Vassar, Virginia was employed in several settings including a social work agency, a brokerage firm, and a product research and development organization. In 1977 she elected to return to school. She earned a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Oklahoma State University in 1987 then spent her professional career in several settings in and around Houston. Several years after retiring from the Psychological Services Division of the Houston Police Department Virginia returned to Oklahoma with her husband and settled in Skiatook. Virginia’s death follows those of her parents and two older brothers, Martin and Tom. Her immediate survivors include her husband of forty-two years, Dr. John Cummins, her daughter Dara, grandson Sebastian, and step-children Michael and Stephanie. Virginia was a gifted and dynamic woman. She had a variety of interests including reading, music, painting, and her stained glass creations. She touched the lives of many people and she will be missed. Due to the current pandemic as well as potential travel restrictions a memorial service will be announced at a later date.
