Ginny loved Rex dearly (he was her world) and all of her grandchildren (including the two four legged ones at the Glover household). She was loved by everyone who knew her. I loved her Thursday visits here in the office after she would get her hair done. She loved a good laugh and a good chocolate.
Ginny we already miss you and your humor.

Ginny was my sister Amy's mother in law. She was my friend. I only knew her for 14 years but I wish I could have known her for a lot longer. Ginny dearly loved her family (human & animal), loved going to church, loved Ohio, loved her Cleveland Browns and loved a full wine glass! I loved her sense of humor and her funny playful banter with her son. She brightened my day whenever I saw her. I admired her personal courage, grit and toughness as she persevered through cancer. Thank you Ginny for giving me so many happy memories. Thank you for what you meant to my wonderful sister and the all love you gave to her dear pets. And thank for giving all of us your dear son. To me he's simply the best brother in law in the world. Rest in peace, dear Ginny. I love you. Audrey

Nan was a lovely woman to spend time with and treated me and my brother like she'd been our grandma our whole lives. I'll miss her company immensely.

Nan was a joy to spend time with and always treated my brother and I like we were her grandkids her whole life, even though we were her step-grandkids. I will miss her company very much.

Ginny was my mother in law but became more like a mom to me as time passed. She was a smart funny tough lady who made me feel loved and who I so enjoyed hanging out with! She loved her family fiercely and I will miss her every day. I love you Mom.
