I was so sad to hear of Ginny’s passing. Even in her sickness she conducted herself with gentleness and grace. She was such an encourager at HyVee. I’ll always remember her greeting me in the mornings with the feather duster in her back pocket and a smile on her face. She will be sorely missed!
I am so sorry to see that Ginny has passed. I loved working with her at JoAnn Fabrics. She was a wonderful manager and friend. I know how much she loved her family and that she will be looking down, watching over and protecting all of you.
