Aunt Bonnie, Sara, Jim and Jane,
You have all been in my thought and prayers since I heard of Ginger's illness last year. And recently, of course, you have been there as well.
I am so sorry for our loss and have such sad feeling for you all.
When I invision Ginger and the last times we spoke, all I can see is the beautiful girl with a big smile and somewhere with all life's troubles...she got peace about so much of it. And that wisdom helped me with my transition when I left Chicago.

I am hoping to be there with you to celebrate her life. But if not, know that my life and many others lives were better because Ginger was part of them.
All my love, Patty
