Ginny was a devoted mother, wife and grandmother. She prided herself on her family and had such a great interest in family heritage and her ancestry. A lover of travel as she took any opportunity to do so. She and Bob would often road trip to visit family or friends and sight see around the country. She loved an adventure; she had the ability to turn a trip to the grocery store into “an adventure”. She was truly a treasure, kind and compassionate. She will be treasured dearly by her family evermore.
