POWER OF ATTORNEY FOR SECTION 16 REPORTING OBLIGATIONS

I, the undersigned, hereby constitute and appoint each
of G. William Beale, Robert M. Gorman, and Rachael R.
Lape, and each of them acting singly, as my true and
lawful attorneys-in-fact and agents, with full powers
of substitution, for me and in my name, place and
stead, in any and all capacities, to sign any and all
Forms 3, 4, or 5 in connection with my beneficial
ownership of securities of Union Bankshares Corporation
(the "Company") that may be required of me pursuant to
Section 16(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934
and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder,
and to file the same and all other documents in connection
therewith, with the Securities and Exchange Commission and any
stock exchange or similar authority, granting unto said
attorneys-in-fact and agents, each acting singly, full
power and authority to do and perform each and every
act and thing requisite and necessary to be done in and
about the premises, as fully to all intents and
purposes as I might or could do in person, hereby
ratifying and confirming all that said attorneys-in-
fact and agents, each acting singly, or his substitute,
may lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof.

I declare that any act or thing lawfully done hereunder
by my said attorneys-in-fact and agents shall be
binding on myself and my heirs, legal and personal
representatives, and assigns, whether the same shall
have been done before or after my death, or other
revocation of this instrument, unless and until
reliable notice thereof shall have been received by any
party who, upon the faith of this instrument, accepts
my said attorneys-in-fact and agents as authorized to
represent me.

I acknowledge that the foregoing attorneys-in-fact, in
serving in such capacity at my request, are not
assuming, and the Company is not assuming, any of my
responsibilities to comply with Section 16 of the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934.

This power of attorney shall remain in full force and
effect until I am no longer required to file Forms 3,
4, and 5 with respect to my holdings of and
transactions in securities issued by the Company,
unless earlier revoked by me in a signed writing
delivered to either of the foregoing attorneys-in-fact,
and the authority of my attorneys-in-fact and agents
hereunder shall not terminate on my disability but
shall remain in full force and effect for so long as I
am an officer or director of the Company and for such
time thereafter as may be necessary to file any such
reports.



IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand
and seal this 2nd day of June, 2015.
