Ginger Russell Obituary
Born on September 13, 1960, in Memphis, Tennessee, she was the daughter of Andrew and Doris Rogers. A woman of faith, Ginger lived her life as a devoted Christian, always extending kindness and compassion to others through her volunteer work and care for those in need.
She found joy in life's simple pleasures-spending weekends searching for treasures at estate and yard sales, tending to her flowers, and gathering with her family. Known affectionately as "GiGi," she was a proud and devoted wife, mother, and grandmother, cherishing every moment spent with her loved ones.
In December 2010, Ginger married her high school sweetheart and the love of her life, Andy M. Russell. Together they built a beautiful life filled with love, happiness, and lasting memories.
She is survived by her husband, Andy; her stepmother, Anna Rogers; her step brother Jeffery Gardner(Sara);her children, Brandon Sherrill(Apryl), Tiffany Whitman(Gregory), and Brian Bennett(Elizabeth); and her beloved grandchildren, Noah, Paige Elise, Annabelle, Gwynn, Landon, Sam, Bentley and Wyatt.
Ginger's memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.
