GINGER DAVIS

Mrs. Davis, I was thinking of you today and how you made me feel special at a vulnerable time in my young life.

I will always be grateful for you sharing that gift with me as a young 10 year old boy.

She made me laugh until tears streamed down my face while at the same time telling me I was a worthwhile person worthy of standing up for myself. She taught me style in my home and always had an opinion. She would come to my house and rearrange things and it always looked better. I loved it! She was generous and had the most giving heart of anyone I've ever known. She would go out of her way to bring me muffins just...

Ginger,
We were friends for many, many years. Teaching with you was always an adventure and those years were some of the best years of my life. You were an awesome person and friend. I still can't believe you are gone. I miss you now and always will.

Much love,
Ann
