Ginger was such a lovely and talented woman. We pledged Chi Omega together. Although we had not seen each other very often in the last decade, she will always hold a place in my heart. Sending Love and Prayers to Bill, Amy and David.

Ginger was as kind as she was beautiful! We met in college and raised our kids together while they were in high school.
She was an inspiration to many people and loved her children dearly. The SCHALLHORN family will treasure its memories of Ginger and David, especially.
