Ginny is truly loved and will always be remembered. She was the most caring, compassionate,and spiritual being that I have ever met. I became a better nurse working with her. She was creative, gentle, and so much fun. Love of life flowed from every pore in her body. I am grateful for my time spent with her. I miss my hospice family.

It has been a rare privilege for me working with Virginia in the hospice setting. For the four years that I have known her I have never heard her say or comit a malicious deed against anyone. She would freely speak her mind and move right along without bearing a grudge. She was wise, kind, considerate, comforting, and one of the best hospice nurses it has been my pleasure to be acquainted with. I will treasure our time together at the Gerstenberg Hospice Center for as long as I live. She will be sorely missed.

Gimnny was one of the first people I met when I moved to West Palm Beach in 1988. She and her parents, Bob and Virginia, were so warm and welcoming. I instantly felt at home. What a privilege it has been to be Virginia Marczak's friend ever since! Every moment of her life was freely given to bring comfort and happiness to others. She was truly a blessing to all whose lives she touched, and she will be deeply missed.
