Virginia Behm

April 12, 1928 — September 25, 2015

Virginia Claire Behm, 87, longtime resident of Denver, passed away 9/25/15 after a brief illness. Born in rural Harrison County, Iowa, to Henry and Hazel Behm, Virginia was one of 9 children. She was preceded in death by sisters Marguerite Stockstad, Regina Petersen and Lucille DeGood and brothers Don and Duane Behm. Virginia graduated from Missouri Valley High School (Iowa) where she excelled in business classes and was an outstanding singer in multiple vocal groups. She continued to use her gift for singing throughout the years. Virginia worked in office administration and was working in the brokerage industry at retirement. She loved the beauty of the Colorado Mountains and never met a dog that she didn't welcome as a friend. She leaves behind her dear longtime friend Liz Dobel, brothers Bob, Gerry and Larry Behm as well as many nieces, nephews and friends. Final resting place will be in the hills close to her birthplace in Magnolia, Iowa alongside her parents, grandparents and other loved ones. It is a lovely, peaceful place. Funeral Mass will be celebrated Thursday, October 8, 2015 at 11:00 am at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church, where Virginia was a Parishioner for over 40 years.
