Ginny graduated from West High School. She worked for many years for JCPenney, starting in customer service and retired as a manager. She and her husband Dave traveled a lot after their retirement. Setting foot in all 50 states, they flew and drove all around the country, visiting family and making memories. In her 60's, Ginny got involved in Go Carts and her friends affectionately called her "Jettin' Ginny". Ginny was very devoted to her church where she worked in the food ministry, and assisted youth and homebound members.
