Obituary

In loving memory of Virginia "Ginny" Lea Holland, who passed away in her home on September 7, 2025 at the age of 79.

Virginia was born February 9, 1946 to Charles and Bernice Hannick (Nee Strawn) in St. Louis, Missouri.  On April 24, 1964, she married her childhood love, Donald Dale Holland.  Virginia and Donald had two children, Deidre Lynn and Darren Dale, raising them in Gray Summit, Missouri.

Virginia was preceded in death by her husband Donald, her daughter Deidre, her parents, her sisters Pat Brignole and Loretta Clayton and her brother Jim Hannick.  She is survived by her son Darren (Melanie) Holland, her grandchildren Savannah, Elle, Aydenn, and Avery Holland, her brother Tom (Vickie) Hannick and many friends and loved ones.

Virginia devoted her adult life to raising her beautiful children and being the sole caregiver to their special needs daughter.  She loved sewing and gardening and made a business to help support her family, doing the work that she loved.  Virginia was an avid Cardinals fan, and her favorite player was Willie McGee.  She was a true inspiration to all that knew her, and she will be greatly missed.
