Virginia Carol (Hooten) Berlingieri, graduate of Irving High School class of 1963, made her transition from this life on March 21. 2025 at 3:21 PM. She was a woman of great faith and is now in the loving arms of her Heavenly Father. She lived a full life of 79 years until being diagnosed with an aggressive form of brain cancer the beginning of February.
She leaves behind her husband Ralph, the whole Berlingieri family, sister Joyce, and her husband Dennis, niece Denise, and nephew Dale. Four daughters; Beth, Beverly, Brigette, and Natasha; and her very special friend, Annie, who was with her every night at the hospital. She is also survived by 8 grandchildren and 17 great grandchildren. We all loved her dearly and she loved us all in return. She will be missed.
There will be a memorial service on Friday, April 11th at 11:00 am at Concordia Lutheran Church, 2503 Bedford Rd., Bedford, Texas 76021 followed by a gathering of family and friends for food, fellowship, and a celebration of life.
