Aunt Jinni will be fondly remembered for always being the gal who could out do the guys at the poker table! She was a strong woman with shrewd business skills but also extremely loving & caring with her children & grandchildren. She now joins my dad, Aunt Pat, Grandma & Grandpa Finnegan, Uncle Bob, et al for some well deserved reminiscing!

We extend our deepest sympathy for the loss of your mother. Ginni was such a good friend to us. We so enjoyed her company often over the years. I (Cathy) will remember good times with her over the years at Bingo, phone conversations, and visits at her home, in which I took her some of my mother-in-law’s zucchini bread! She was so proud of her children and grandchildren. She especially talked with me about Mary because we had graduated from high school together. She always knew everything going on in Shelby and had strong opinions about it all! We loved her. Saying goodbye to “Mom” is very hard to do. Our prayers are with you during this difficult time.

2E,
Please know that your entire family is in our prayers. We are so grateful that you had such a good visit with “Ma’am” during your trip to Columbus and Mansfield back in June. We know she was very special to you and during your visit, you showed your daughters just how much you loved her. Caroline and Isabelle are lucky to have had that time and example from their loving Dad. God Bless all of you during this difficult time. We love you.

You have our sympathies. I will always remember our good times together as we were growing up on Marvin Avenue in Shelby and the warm, open home where I always felt welcome, and also the fishing trips to Gatton Rock with rice crispies treats to eat on the way! As a little boy, Jinni told me that “our door is always open.” I took her at her word a couple of years ago, when Connie and I visited on the spur of the moment. Sure enough, the door was open, but it wasn’t that little boy who walked in! After her initial concerns, we had a very good visit.
Take care, Weber family.
Love, Dick and Connie Berry
