I was sorry to hear of Ginny's passing. She liked to joke around at work & was always kidding me about being a "rug rat" because I was younger than her. I remember her talking about Sterling & that they collected pin ball machines. I will miss her smile! Our deepest sympathy to her family, Beth & Bob Over
