I couldn't begin to count the number of times I sat and watched she and Richard play euchre with my parents. It was always a treat when I got to sit and play a hand or 2. I tried to stay away on Bridge nights! We've lost a special treasure. I can't drive through Rossville without looking at their old house and remembering this dear couple.

There are so many amazing memories of Aunt Ginnie that I could share. I loved our chats and will miss them. She was one of a kind and I am forever grateful to have been blessed to have her as an aunt. Thank you Aunt Ginnie for your encouraging and thoughtful support. xoxo
