Ginger Brower, age 62, died in Seattle on August 2, 2010. She was born January 17th 1948 in Altoona, PA to Robert E. & Margaret L. Brower. She was a graduate of Penn State University.

She is survived by her father Bob Brower of Bellingham; daughter Betsy Knox of Sierra Madre, CA; sisters Peggy Joy (Bob) Sullivan of Woodbridge, VA and Cathy Sue (Steve) Allen of Sumas; nieces Maureen, Debby, and Anna; grand-nephews Sean, Aiden, and Theo; and many cousins who loved her dearly.

She was a voracious reader, a creative thinker with an extraordinary mind that had the ability to look at the world in new ways. She could paint the truth in language and words. Ginger was lively and intelligent with a strong desire to help others. She tried out for clown college, collected gargoyles and dozens of spheres, solved mysteries, and saw into the heart of every person she met.
Memorials may be made to the Snohomish County Search-Rescue, 5506 Old Machias Rd., Snohomish WA 98290, or to your local library.
A Celebration of Ginger’s Life will be held at Westford Funeral Home on Sunday, September 19th at 2:00 PM followed by a reception across the street at Westford’s Broadway Hall.
