Ginger was preceded in death by her father, Richard Christman, her mother, Patricia Smith, her stepfather, Jack Smith, her sister, Julie Jackson, and her beloved husband, James Nelson.
She is survived by her stepmother, Virginia Christman, three brothers, Rick (Helen) Christman, Mark (Jennifer) Christman, and Tom (Lisa) Smith, as well as nieces, nephews, and numerous other family members who loved her. Ginger will also be terribly missed by her dear friend and honorary nephew, Herman Belving, who called her his "auntie".
Born, raised, and educated in Casper, she worked hard for various employers over the years. On July 5, 1994, she married James Nelson. Together they started their own business, which Ginger ran for well over two decades.
Ginger was a life-long animal lover, and she spent many years rescuing dogs, cats, and even some baby squirrels. She was generous with her cooking and baking food for others, especially during the holiday season. Her sense of humor and all the funny birthday cards she sent will be treasured forever.
