Virginia Ann Horne 
Virginia Ann Horne, 79, died July 18, 2020.
She was born in 1940.
She was a child from Maine, a mother from Wisconsin, a resident of Anna Maria Island and a friend to all.
Her joy for living and good cheer was infectious.
Her family and dear friends, both near and far, meant the world to her.
She would want people to celebrate her life not mourn her passing. She would want people to remember her smiling, laughing and dancing her way through her beautiful life.
As the year closes on her death, she’s honored with treasured happy memories.
She is survived by her brother, Roger Burke Jr.; children Stacey Horne Hansen and Bradley; grandchildren Virginia (Ginger) Hansen, Chloe Hansen, Sydnie and Mackenzie.
