On behalf of Elizabeth S. "Betty" Abernethy, I would like to extend my deepest sympathy at the loss of Ginnie. She was dear friend of my Aunt Betty. They had many adventures together over the years. Betty continued to enjoy visiting with Ginnie even up to a couple of weeks ago.

We are saddened to learn of the death of Mrs. Ahlbrandt. We both have very fond memories of her when we were growing up in Pittsburgh. Our thoughts are with Ginger at this difficult time.

Even though I have not worked at Westminster place for awhile now,I often think of my time working in the Gabels where I became very good friends with my elderly extended Family,
Ginny was very special to me and I have missed her dearly, I called her princess, she was a princess with a very big heart,a very kind spirit and I loved her and the rest of my elderly friends at Westminster so much
"I am sure princess is in HEAVEN most likely befriending every
animal in the Kingdom"
I love you Ginny

Dear Ginger, Jess and I have so many fond memories of both your Mom and Dad. To think, our mothers died in the same year and were such good friends. We have our memories and as we get older, that's all we have of our parents. Oh my, didn't they have a good time!!!! Our best to you and much love, Jess and Betsey

I have so many fond memories of 'Cousin Ginnie; my last one in Woodside visiting my mother and having a laugh with her. She will, along with Cousin Roger, always be part of my memories of living in Fox Chapel many years ago.
