Dear Ben and Family,
Ginny will be missed by so many. When I think of her I remember all the times I have heard someone say I love you to her and she would always respond with “I love you more”. Her since of humor was wonderful and she was so strong during such a trying time for the last number of years. God bless you and your family.

Dear Ben, Kyle & Family,
We have just learned of Ginny’s passing, and are so sorry for your loss. Ginny will be remembered for the “Basket of Love” she always carried with her. No matter where she went, or who she was with, she left a feeling of love, and yet her “Basket of Love” was never empty. She will be greatly missed by many.
Keeping you and your family in our prayers and hearts.

Kyle, I only met Ginny at the 50th birthday at the beach. She was so gracious and sweet. Know that my thoughts and prayers are with you.

I am Julie, her son Jimmy’s daughter. I did not know that “grandma beach” was even sick. It breaks my heart to hear the news and know that I cannot be there for her memorial. I am 25 weeks pregnant and cannot go to Oak Island due to complications. I will always cherish the memories I had with her, those summers at the beach. Ben, I am so sorry, I know your loss is great. You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
Love,
Julie & Allen Bradley

Ben: I was so sorry to read this in the paper. When I lived at Oak Island, I always enjoyed my conversations with Ginny, she just had a “spark” to her. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time.
