I am so sorry to hear about Ginger. I worked at the Helena Post Office, and when the Elaine office was shorthanded, I have gone down to help. Most of the time it was working with Ginger. She was always a pleasure to work with. I believe that she told me about working in Helena, and renting a room from my mother-in-law (Dorothy Shannon) when she was right out of high school. My prayers are with her family.
