Barbara J. Ginter

June 16, 1950 - December 27, 2020

Barbara Jane Ginter, age 70, of Northville was taken by the angels and went to be with her Lord & Savior on Sunday, December 27, after a courageous battle with brain cancer. She was born on June 16, 1950 to Kenneth and Martha Edwards of Northville and passed away at Mountain Valley Hospice with her family by her side. She was a lifelong member of the Northville Pilgrim Holiness Church and dedicated her life to live for the Lord. Barbara volunteered at the Northville Holiness Academy as a teacher’s aide and kept a close eye on her three children who were students at the time. She worked making gloves in Northville in one of the many former glove shops. She was a former member of Northampton Ambulance Service and spent over 30 years as a Home Health Aide at Helping Hands Caregivers of Hamilton County. She volunteered for Meals on Wheels delivering meals around the Northville area until her illness prevented her from driving. She enjoyed walking her dogs around the Village rain or shine and her dogs were her babies. She adopted several from area shelters and was always reading the papers looking for another one. Barbara is predeceased by her husband Gerald Ginter whom she married on June 28, 1968 and her parents Kenneth & Martha Edwards of Northville. Barbara is survived by her sisters Priscilla (Paul) Young of Gloversville, Donna Edwards of Davenport, a brother Kenneth Edwards of Northville, son Matthew (Jean) Ginter of Northville, daughter Melodie (Sean) Lemiszki of Fultonville, son Mark (Amanda) Ginter of Mayfield and Grandchildren Adam Brooks, Matthew (Ana) Ginter Jr., Brian Ginter, Heather Ginter, Kyle Lemiszki, Zachery Ginter and many nieces, aunts and step-grandchildren.
