Obituary

Virginia (Ginny) Susan Porter, age 75, of Columbus, Ohio went home to be with our Lord on Tuesday, December 20, 2022, at Riverside Methodist Hospital after a brief battle with cancer. She was born in Lorain, Ohio to Richard and Margaret Orozco. Ginny graduated from Admiral King High School in 1965. She is survived by her loving husband of 44 years, Larry Porter; 3 daughters, Megan (Paul) McDowell, Meredith (Jared) Simon, and Mara (Patrick) Wright; 5 grandchildren, Elle and Emery McDowell, Rhodie Simon, Cooper and Grace Wright; a brother, Richard (Karen) Orozco; a sister Marie (David) Snavely; and numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins. Ginny will be greatly missed until we are reunited in the presence of the Lord. Ginny actively attended St. Christopher Parish and Vineyard Grandview. She had a fulfilling career as a teacher with Columbus City Schools for 30 years. Over the years, Ginny was involved in many organizations including the Girl Scouts of Columbus, Grandview Heights Euchre Club and People of God's Love Community.

Our hearts ache for the loss of your Ginny.

You can shed tears that she is gone
Or you can smile because she has lived

You can close your eyes and pray that she will come back
Or you can open your eyes and see all that she has left

Your heart can be empty because you can’t see her
Or you can be full of the love that you shared

You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday
Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday

You can remember her and only that she is gone
Or you can cherish her memory and let it live on

You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back
Or you can do what she would want: smile, open your eyes, love and go on. ~ David Harkins
