When I think of Ginger, I smile.  When someone passes, people always say I'm sorry for your LOSS.  Ginger is a person I lost.  I have a sense of loss because all the things she did and said and her amazing personality made be better and happier.   Just a short interaction filled my tank with positivity.   What a legacy she has where there are people out there that remember her, that knew and loved her and benefitted from knowing her.  3 years of 30, I won't forget Ginger.  I'll use a phrase Ginger always used and say when it is time for me to "take my dirt nap" I hope that people will still love me and remember me as fondly as I do her.  May God bless.

It wasn't that long ago that I saw your smiling face and laughed with you for something silly one of us said. It is hard to believe that you have been gone 2 years.  I miss you.  I always thought I'd have one more time to see you, to enjoy you.   When I think back on all our time together, I can't think of one instance that was negative or where you didn't build others up with your amazing personality and humor.  What a great, genuine and special lady.  I am sure you never thought you were doing anything amazing, but you touched so many people.  You showed us your strength, yet you were one of the gentlest people I have ever known.   As long as I live, you will live in my memory and in my heart.

One of the kindest, sweetest and most hilarious ladies I have ever met. The years we worked together and the laughs we shared, will forever be some of the best of my life. 

Fly high with the Angels, Sweet Ginger. 

"I love you Ginger and I always will" seems like too little to say about a woman who was so special, so friendly, so down to Earth, so amazing and so genuine.  Perhaps it is the textbook definition of taking someone for granted when it feels as if someone has always been in your life and you assume that they always will be.  Because of the Pandemic, I didn't see Ginger often but when I did, the time together was always special.  When I didn't see her, I felt just that much better knowing that she was out there and I would see her soon.  Ginger, honey, I pray that I do get to see you again, someday.

Oh my dear, sweet  Ginger....I have so many memories....good, bad and so many that make me laugh!  I found the meaning of "FRIEND" in the dictionary one day and your name was there!  I didn't have to go to the dictionary to learn the meaning of friend because YOU were always there to show me what it meant. 

I  will never forget coming home one day, forgetting that I had given my key to you and had to climb through the window to get in!!   Upon going into my bedroom, I found almost all of my clothes, scattered all over everywhere and wondered what could have happened....well,  Ginger is what happened!!!....You see, it was Friday and she wanted something different to wear to our favorite place on the planet, the Mousetrap!!  She decided my closet was a good place to start.....She finally found "the perfect" thing...and everything else was  tossed  "wherever".  I couldn't stop laughing about the "tornado" that hit my apartment that night....Thanks for the memory my precious friend....and for the many more great memories we shared.  I will miss you every day my dear one...We never hung up the phone without a " love you".....so once again, until I see  you again, I love you my dear Ginger.....
