Ginny was born in McKeesport PA, lived in Downy, California with her beloved Aunt Marie in younger years, but home was Rochester, NY. She enjoyed connecting with friends & neighbors when working & owning the Cornor Store in West Henrietta for many years.

Ginny took on the “mom” role for many children, whether they lived in the neighborhood, were friends of her children or just showed up at The Cornor Store.  She adopted & fostered many fur-babies and always had love for anyone who brought animals into their hearts.  She & Don spent many years traveling and connecting with people and making friends all over the country.  Two legs or four, her true passion was connecting with people and dogs.  She would meet them where they were at, show love and provide safety & sanctuary with her kind words, laughter and a cup of coffee or a treat.
