Virginia Snyder Citron, known as Ginny, passed away Monday,

April April 25th, 2022, at the age of 89. She died peacefully at

home in Delray, Florida surrounded by her family. She leaves

behind four children, Virginia S. McGraw, James H. McGraw IV

(Jane Love), W. Scott McGraw (Catherine Delahunt), and David

D. McGraw (Elizabeth Frank). She was the proud grandmother of

eight grandchildren, and two great grandchildren.

Born in Wheeling, West Virginia in 1933, Ginny was the daughter

of William Cordes Snyder, Jr. President and CEO of Blaw-Knox

Steel Corporation and Virginia Harper Snyder, and older sister to

William Cordes Snyder III. She was raised in the Pittsburgh

suburb of Sewickley, where Ginny graduated from Sewickley

Academy. She later went on to graduate from the Masters School,

known to many as Dobbs, and continued her education at

Briarcliff College.

Ginny married James H. McGraw III in 1952, and after living

briefly in Texas and Massachusetts, settled in Short Hills NJ,

where they raised their four children. While living in Short Hills,

Ginny was active in the Short Hills Garden Club and the Junior

League. She and her husband remained married until 1976.

Subsequently, Ginny moved to Chatham, Mass. where she spent

many summers enjoying her friends and family on the Cape.

During the winter months, she resided in Delray, Florida, where

her parents Cord and Virginia previously established winter

residency.

In 1993 Ginny married Thomas Citron from Short Hills, and they

remained married until the end of Mr. Citron's life in 2013.

Ginny was a wonderful mother and grandmother, and nothing

mattered more to her than the closeness of her family. She was a

great presence in all of their lives and treasured the time they

spent together.

Ginny was beautiful and elegant in every way and was extremely

active on the tennis courts and golf course throughout her life. In

addition to the love she had for her family, she greatly valued her

friendships, whether from her school days, or the lifelong

friendships made in Short Hills, Lake Placid, and Chatham, Mass.

She loved entertaining, was extremely outgoing and had a zest

for life. Ginny also loved music, and rarely lived her life without

music playing in the background. Whether it was Jimmy Durante,

Burt Bacharach, Broadway show tunes or pop, music was a

lifelong passion which she passed down to her children.

Ginny lived a wonderful and blessed life and she will be sorely

missed by her family members and friends.

Ginny will be laid to rest at a private family service in Lake Placid,

NY later in May.

The M. B. Clark, Inc., Funeral Home in Lake Placid, NY is in charge of

arrangements.
