Ginger was born on Nov. 1, 1958, in Santa Ana, Calif., and lovingly welcomed into the family of Ray and Loretta Miller. Ginger graduated from Hermiston High School in Hermiston, Ore., in 1976. Shortly after graduating, she joined the ranks of the U.S. Army as a satellite and microwave system operator, serving stateside and overseas till her enlistment ended in April 1988. In 1990, Ginger made the move north to Alaska, putting down roots in Anchorage and obtaining a position with the VA as a benefits manager until her retirement in 2016.

In the course of her life, Ginger was never one to sit still, she was always out doing something, whether it be at a gathering to watch her favorite sports team, out camping and enjoying the bliss that Alaska had to offer, or she could be found volunteering at her local veteran organizations. Ginger was at one time the president of the VFW Auxiliary, its Junior and Senior Vice and Volunteer bartender, but mostly she loved being with her family.

Ginger is preceded in death by her brother, William King; and grandmother, Louise Mills.
