Sherry Buttram wrote a sympathy message

“To Ginny's family, Please accept my sincerest condolences for your loss. I understand you lost her quite a while ago to Alzheimer's, which when I heard, made me extremely sad. She was my supervisor for about ten years at hospice. She was such a kind, generous, loving, smart, sometimes goofy soul. She taught me so very, very much about supervising a team, and also about life as well. We teased her about how many sticky notes she had plastered all over her computer!. God bless you all.”
