November 21, 2012

Ginger Borden Shadix, 36, a resident of Cypress Cove Care and Rehab of Muscle Shoals, went home to be with the Lord on Wednesday, Nov. 21, 2012, after a prolonged illness resulting from an automobile accident in January 2005.

Ginger was born Feb. 6, 1976, to Gerald and Jo Ann Borden. She graduated in 1994 from Hillcrest High School in Evergreen. She later graduated from Faulkner University, where she received a degree in Early Childhood Education. She completed her Master’s degree at AUM. Ginger was an elementary school teacher until the time of the accident.

She was a faithful Christian and member of Evergreen Baptist Church. She also attended Adamsville Church of Christ where she worked with the youth ministry.

Ginger was a devoted and loving daughter, sister, mother and wife. She was an inspiration to all her students and touched many lives. Her smile could light up any room.

She is survived by her nine-year-old son, Borden Clay Shadix; her parents, Gerald and Jo Ann Borden; her grandmother, Ailcy Hester; her three sisters, Teresa Fuller, of Littleville, Lisa Waldrep, of Sheffield, and Beverly Pugh (Shannon) of Evergreen; her nephew, Zachary Waldrep; her nieces, Katie Fuller Crowden (Andrew), Madeline Pugh, and Emma Pugh; and her great-nephew, Parker Crowden.

Funeral services were Nov. 23, 2012, at Pinkard Funeral Home with Bro. Joe Lenox officiating.

Pallbearers will include Jeff Carrier, Terry Conway, Andrew Crowden, Charles Gatlin, Chris Nichols, and Skip Nichols. Burial was in Franklin Memorial Gardens.
