Virginia was a hardworking and spirited woman. She devoted 30 years to her business Ledger Express. She was also a notary and tax preparer, earning three associate degrees in Bookkeeping, Accounting, and Computer Sciences. Raised on the family farm, Virginia grew up with a strong sense of responsibility and later managed the farm for many years as well.

She loved hunting deer, squirrel, rabbit, and turkey and fishing for catfish. She enjoyed swimming at home and relaxing in her hot tub. Horses, motorcycles, dirt bikes, and her 3- and 4-wheelers brought her joy, as did camping and canoeing in Lebanon and Salem. She enjoyed action movies, Yellowstone, and attending country music shows in Branson, Missouri. She was known as “Blondie”. She had a soft spot for Siamese cats and loved country line dancing and listening to her favorite country tunes.

Virginia will be remembered for her strength, her independence, and the full, vibrant life she lived. Her legacy is one of hard work, adventure, and the love she shared.

Virginia was a member of the Shrine of St. Patrick.

Pallbearers will be Darryl Berhorst, Reggie Berhorst, Mark Tuley, John Berhorst, Gary Pearl and Jack Shannon.
