Every so often I get an email from this website reminding me of Ginger, not that I could forget.  Her urban farm business was a model I once aspired to.  It is difficult to maintain the level of dedication she and Andrew put into theirs.  It was anchor at our market for a few years, and 'tis the growing season.  Her spirit there is missed as she must be among the other people and places where she was involved.

The thing that made a lasting effect on me about  my sister Ginger. Well o

I can go on and on, but I’ll make it short and sweet. How open minded she was about everything from politics to religion and all sorts of things going on in the world. She always talked highly of family, friends and her associates that she worked with. Also Her love of raising honey bees. This is the sweet part. I would like to nickname my sister Ginger HONEY BEE!!!!! May God bless her

I met Ginger in the market garden training program, as a fellow classmate.  She was one of those people that when you find them, you know you're in the right place.  I like to imagine her doing the same now, in a new way.

Dear Andrew, I met your Mom at Blessed Trinty.  When she started at the office I always looked forward to seeing her. I haven’t gone to that church in a while taking care of my Dad on East side. I still support them and always sent a note to her and ordered my gift cards. She was always so helpful and nice. She will be missed.  

Dear Andrew,

My deepest condolences for the loss of your precious mom. 

Your cousin,

Jennifer

As children, my siblings and I played the Needham Twins albums over and over again - singing along with the songs that Aunt Ginger and our uncles  brought to life.  I can close my eyes now and picture her on the cover of the album jacket- a huge smile and a long ponytail hanging down on one side. This is how I will always remember Aunt Ginger. A huge smile and an even bigger heart. 

I know you’re singing again. 

My condolences to Ginger's family, especially her beloved son, Andrew, whom I directed in productions at Saint Joseph Academy when he was a student at Saint Edward High School.  I first met Ginger when I came to work as an English teacher at Saint Joseph Academy. She worked in the finance office and was always so kind and helpful to me and my fellow colleagues. I loved her sense of humor, warm smile that lit up her whole face, and delightful laugh. I loved to tease her by calling her Ginger Peaches. She reciprocated by calling me Melba Toast. Later we served on a CSJ Associate Advisory Team together and would meet each other at CSJ events, always with the same teasing greetings plus a warm hug. Along with many others,  I will miss Ginger deeply. She was a very kind, good, loving, and fun person to be around.  I am so grateful for her friendship! 

Ginger was always such a kind and caring person.  Sincere sympathy and prayers.  Saint Joes was blessed to have her.  Sincerely, Louise
