Well, Ginna died last night. Not really sure how I feel. I am really glad that her earthly suffering is over. May God have mercy on her soul. Times like these are when you really have to think about what you believe. Ginna died of a horrible disease. I truly hope no one else in our family ever has to suffer through something like this. At least when death came it was quiet and quick.
We all new Ginna so I really don't know what to say to eulogize her. She died the way she lived; by her own rules. She was stubborn and hard headed and did just exactly as she pleased. That is also how she handled her disease. She did it her way! I can honestly say she was brave. I only heard her "kind of cry" twice while talking about it. I actually admire her for refusing a feeding tube and the breathing machine. She did not want to linger any longer than necessary.
We all have so many stories and memories of Ginna. Who can ever forget her Indian name or the way she had with people (like beating them into unconsciousness). She loved traveling and she was the hardest worker ever. She loved her family in her own way and she really loved her dogs! I will never be able to lift a piece of furniture without thinking of her. She helped Sally and I move so many times.
So here's to you Ginna! I hope you are in heaven with our dad right now laughing and hugging. You were a good sister to me and I will miss you terribly. I hope that wherever you are now you find the happiness you so badly wanted while you were here. I love you and I will miss. Rest in peace.
