Ginny has followed the Red Sox for decades and was finally rewarded when the Red Sox broke the 86-year jinx with a World Series in in 2004 against the St. Louis Cardinals.

Ginny grew up in Lisbon Falls and was married and raised seven children on a farm in Bowdoin, and served as postmaster, operating the post office from her porch.
