Ginger Kluth (née Griffith) – 75 of
Brunswick, Ohio, born on December 2, 1949 - entered into Heaven on November 15, 2025.
Mom. Nana. Wife. The Quiet Strength.
Ginger Kluth was quiet. But she was strong in that quietness - comfortable in it, warm in it. Some people mistake silence for distance, but the ones who reached out, who gave her a hug, who took the time to know her, discovered something rare: a loyal, lifelong friend who loved deeply and showed up fully.
For 55 years, Ginger was married to Bobby Kluth. They were a study in balance. Bobby was the presence; Ginger was the strength. Bobby was the personality; Ginger was the backbone. While Bobby couldn't discipline their daughters Kelly and Niki to save his life, Ginger kept them on the straight and narrow. While Bobby forgot his suitcase, Ginger was up and dressed by 6am every single day, ready for whatever came.
What they shared was simple and profound: they loved being together. Multiple times a day, you'd find them driving around Mapleside Farms on their UTV, just the two of them, taking it all in. They loved to travel - St John in the Caribbean, Las Vegas, and most of all, Surfside Beach, South Carolina, where Ginger could breathe in the salt air and be exactly where she wanted to be. She was a beach girl. When she was by the ocean, she was in the moment. Fully present. Fully herself.
Ginger loved creating things with her hands - crocheting, tending to flowers and plants. She loved the farm. She loved Jesus, boy did she LOVE JESUS. She loved reading. She loved a good mystery movie. But her biggest smiles - the ones captured in every photo - were with her three grandsons.
In her final years, as Bobby battled cancer, Ginger took care of him even as her own body grew weaker. Those who loved her always thought she would go first. But Ginger's quiet strength ran deeper than anyone knew. She held on. She made sure Bobby was okay. And five days after he passed, she followed him home.
After 55 years together, they couldn't be apart for long.
Ginger is survived by her daughters Kelly and Niki; her sons-in-law Greg and Jason; her grandsons Manny, Jonah, and Elijah; and the friends AND FAMILY who were blessed enough to reach out and discover the warmth beneath the quiet.
She loved deeply. She stayed loyal. And when it was time, she made sure Bobby went first.
That's love.
