Ginny married Daniel M. Goeden on Feb. 19, 1944, in Slinger and they had 60 years together before he died in 2004.

They lived in Tomah, Mauston, then moved to Oregon to be closer to their daughters in 2000. Ginny’s Catholic faith was also a large part of her life and the last several years, she was an active member of Holy Mother of Consolation Church in Oregon. Her many friendships at Greenwood Apartments and the Oregon Senior Center kept her active. Ginny was an expert Bridge player until just a few days before her death. Ginny is survived by her daughter, Sandra (Philip) Hill of Tulsa, Okla., Susan (Ron) Graney of Oregon, and Cindy Harrington (Dan Neuhaus) of Madison; 6 grandchildren; ten great-grandchildren; and a soon to be born baby boy due in January.
