Virginia Hopkins of O'Fallon, MO, passed away at the age of 73 on Thursday, April 18, 2019. She was preceded in death by her parents, William and Edna Donovan; and 15 siblings.

Virginia was a nature-lover who loved growing plants with her green thumb and loved taking care of animals. She had a traveler’s spirit and cherished all of her trips, especially the ones to Florida and the beach. Collecting tea pots, windchimes, and old books was a hobby of Virginia’s and she was very proud of her collections. Friends and family will always remember how great a mother Virginia was and how she was both selfless and kind who loved her family unconditionally. She will be dearly missed.
