Dear Ginny;
My thoughts are with you way up there in the clouds, I can and always will see your soothing smile with the tip of your head whenever you shared words of wisdom with me.
I still have the beautiful quartz necklace you gave me to bring me "good vibes" I wear it often to help get me thru the tough times. Having dinner at your house was always a pleasure and an adventure, from being tossed over a couch by Tom, practical jokes played on by the Moores, and the fun games played with everyone I enjoyed it always.
Thank you for that and more you will be missed a lot.
Love Gen
