Our lives will never be the same.
Virginia Jane Holzner, 64, of Lacey Spring, Va., passed graciously from this life Friday, April 10, 2009, at her home surrounded by family.
The daughter of the late Alexander Burns and Nina R. Cole, many friends knew her as “Ginny” or “Chick”. Ginny was born in New York City,
N.Y., on Jan. 26, 1945, and graduated from McLean High School in 1963. Ginny worked at the Department of Interior in Washington, D.C., prior to moving to the Shenandoah Valley and taking on her lifelong ambition of raising a family.
On Feb. 5, 1966, she married Charles F. “Chuck” Holzner, who survives.
Also surviving are one daughter, Terri H. Wuenschel and husband, Greg, of Bluemont, Va.; two sons, Carl B. Holzner and wife, Melissa, of Weyers Cave, Va., and Kirk J. Holzner and wife, Kimberly, of Lacey Spring, Va., as well as four grandchildren, Paige, Morgan, Alex and Cole.
One sister, Nina M. Fitch of Lacey Spring, also survives.
Ginny worked as a Sales Demonstrator at Costco for 14 years. She was a member of the Woodland Hills Extension Homemaker Association. Ginny and her husband were active members of the Plains Promenaders Square Dance Club of Timberville for 16 years. Ginny made friends wherever she went and hoped that her friends would remember the good times that they shared.

Funeral Services will be held on Tuesday at 11 a.m. at Mount Tabor United Methodist Church on Route 11 in Lacey Spring with Pastors Mark Landis and Carl Stewart officiating.
