Ginny Haslett Ford was a remarkable person. I'm happy to say I've known Aunt Gin since I was a little girl. And I wish I had one ounce of her spunk! The world will miss her. She was pure joy to be around. My entire family extend our sympathy.

What a great long life!
Aunt Gin was such as staple in my life from childhood. Picnics on Mary Jane Lane to visits in Westchester - hard to imagine the family without her. She was strong and active all her life. My deepest sympathy on your loss. Judy
Our families were neighbors
Our families were neighbors growing up. Ginny and John, came down to our farm to get milk. Many good memories with the family. My sincere sympathy to you all.
Aunt Gin
I will always remember Aunt Gin's devilish sense of humor. Always independent, feisty and fun to be around. She was a wonderful presence throughout my childhood. In loving memory, Greta
