Ginger Lea Schupfer, 63, born September 8, 1958 in Chandler, AZ, was called home on July 3, 2022 while in her husband’s arms. Born to parents Tom and Dellia Hart in her childhood years she travelled throughout the world as part of a decorated US Air Force family.
She returned to Arizona in 1975. On February 14, 1976 she met Greg on Main Street in Mesa. They were married five years later, to the day.
Ginger’s tenacious work ethic, humble approach, and fun-loving spirit made her easily loved by all. In 2004 she retired from Larson Supply Co., but didn’t remain retired for long. For the past 17 years, she managed key control as a seasonal employee traveling with Barrett-Jackson Auto Auction.
Adored by all who knew her, Ginger expressed loving kindness for others, even those she just met. She appreciated life’s simple moments. She loved happy hour beer and pinball, playing games, puzzles, and crochet. She spent summers at her cabin in the mountains of Payson to get relief from the valley heat.
Her family cherish many fond memories, like her spontaneous and exuberant dancing, her benevolent love for her grandchildren, and her fervor for Jesus Christ.
Ginger is survived by husband Greg of 41 years, daughter Sirena Gaddis and husband Josh of Davis, OK, daughter Kendra Bolger and husband Tyler of Seattle, WA, brother Robert Hart and wife Bobbi of Abilene, TX, and four grandchildren Gabriel, Levi, Abigail, and Everlea Gaddis.
As we feel broken and lost here on Earth, we have faith and find peace that she went running into Jesus’ arms and is safely home in Heaven.

So sorry for your loss. She was a fun loving lady and I’m so glad I got to know her.. She was full of life..
Thank you for all of the childhood memories we made together and the ones we made as adults. You will be forever missed, but always remembered with the fondest of memories.
I met Ginger at my first auction I worked for Barrett Jackson. She was super friendly and always was nice to talk with her. She could carry on a conversation with anyone she met. She will definitely be missed. Thoughts and prayers go to Greg and the family.

Just want you to know when I think of your mom I see her big smile and her Joy 😊
