Ms. Bergman lived a life of service. In early years she worked in Insurance sales. She served with integrity for her community as city council member for 14 years and Mayor of Hollywood, Alabama for 4 years. Virginia held her family in high regard and took the role of "Nonnie" to generations of children and all who knew her. Her greatest service was to children age 3-5 as a Sunday School teacher for 40 years where she so loved teaching them about the Bible. She would so often laugh at all the funny things they would tell her. She was and will always be remembered for her love, Christian values and service. A life well lived!
