successes of the Republican Party of Louisiana, the Louisiana Federation of Republican Women (LFRW),
the Republican National Committee (RNC), and the National Federation of Republican Women (NFRW).

For many years she served as Louisiana's Republican National Committeewoman. Ginny was an LFRW
unit club president in addition to holding many other positions in the LFRW. As a Regional Vice President,
she founded at least two unit clubs. Ginny was an exceptional role model, devoted wife, mother,
grandmother, daughter and friend until her death in 1992.
