My thoughts and prayers are with you.Gin gave her heart to everyone. What a wonderful gift. She was like a special aunt to me and my siblings. Gin will always be in my heart. I admire so much the way she always spoke her mind, and I have to admit she could make me laugh until it hurt with her quick wit and incredible sense of humor. God bless.
