Ginger Guilbert 1969-2025

Virginia Lee "Ginger" Guilbert, 56, joined her parents in heaven on Sunday, September 14, 2025.

The youngest child of Marcia Huff Guilbert and Gordon M "Tom" Guilbert, Jr of Lookout Mountain, she is survived by her sisters, Julie Guilbert (Sandy Needham) of Whidbey Island, Washington, and Catherine Guilbert Lawrence (Rob) of Lookout Mountain, Georgia, and brother Gordon M "Trip" Guilbert III, of Atlanta, Georgia, beloved nephews Michael Guilbert (Grace) of Charlotte, North Carolina, and Christopher Guilbert of Atlanta, Georgia and cousin Rebecca "Becky" Wilson Ewton (Tad) of Ringgold, Georgia.

Ginger was very involved in Orange Grove and attended many excellent Orange Grove programs throughout her life, then later graduated from Central High School.

Ginger lived with her loving parents most of her life, then in Residential Care at Orange Grove and more recently Life Bridges in Cleveland, TN. A hard worker, she worked in food service at McDonald's, Unum, the Chattanooga School System and the Brass Register. Ginger loved music, karaoke, birthdays, making toasts, spending time with her family, and any and all celebrations!

The family would like to especially thank Life Bridges in Cleveland, Tennessee for the excellent care and love Ginger received at the end of her life.

Ginger was a gift from God to our family, dearest friends, and the community of Lookout Mountain, who have joyfully embraced her. Ginger's purpose on earth was to share love. Her zest for life was contagious and brought happiness to all who met her.

Funeral services will be held on Saturday, September 27 at 2:00 PM at the Church of Good Shepherd on Lookout Mountain with a reception to follow at the church.

In lieu of flowers, the family respectfully requests donations be made to Orange Grove or Life Bridges of Cleveland, Tennessee.

Arrangements are by Wann Funeral & Cremation Center at the foot of historic Lookout Mountain, St. Elmo. (423) 821-7551. Share your memories at wannfuneralhome.com
