I was so lucky to not only work with Ginger, but share a sweet friendship. I know she loved her husband, daughters and grandchildren. We shared laugh and tears together. She was a good friend. I am sorry for the family's loss, but know she is now without pain. God bless you and comfort you.

She felt sick for months with nausea, then she watched her feet swell & her skin stretch; she struggled to climb stairs, she got breathless quick; she suffered many sleepless nights. She then went through excruciating pain to bring me into this world. Then, she became my nurse, my chef, my maid, my chauffeur, my biggest fan, my teacher, & my best friend. She's struggled for me, cried over me, hoped the best for me & prayed for me. Most of us take our mom for granted. People do not know what they have until one day they wake up and she is gone!! I will miss you more each day momma. I cherish the memories and conversations we had. Most of all the laughter we shared. I loved going and taking you shopping. I loved meeting you for lunch or dinner. I love you so much.
