She was preceded in death by her husband, Vernon Bitner; parents, Albert and Frances Alexander; brother, Edward Alexander; and daughter, Judith Anderson-McFarland.

Virginia was a bookkeeper until she retired from the City of New Brighton and moved to Arizona in the early 1990’s. She had a passion for baking and cake decorating.

She was a fun loving, kindhearted woman who loved the Lord and gave freely of herself to help others.

Heaven has gained a beautiful soul and a large void has been left in the lives of those who knew and loved her. She will be missed more than words can express.
