Virginia Ibertis

August 1, 1924 - August 18, 2020

Virginia lbertis was born in 1924, to two wonderful parents and a loving older sister. She met her husband, Eugenio, when they were kids and they grew up just down the street from each other in their small town of Moncalvo, Italy. Virginia emigrated to Venezuela from Italy in 1950 with her young son Giovanni, following her husband who had emigrated a few years prior. They were eager to start a new life after the devastation World War II brought to their native Italy. After a few years living in Venezuela, Virginia and husband welcomed a second son, Pablo, and the family was now complete. With hard work, good family principles, and discipline, Virginia and her family thrived in the new home country, developing one of the highest producing and sought-after cattle farms in the region. After 30 years in Venezuela, the family decided to uproot itself once again due to economic and political instability and make a new home in Florida. Virginia's brave spirit and courage helped her and her family push forward in times of uncertainty, all the while providing constant love and affection to all who knew her. As her grandkids would say "Even at 96, she was smart, stubborn, and never took no for an answer...that was our Nonna!"
