Ginger Ann Zipperer

May 5, 1981 ~ November 3, 2022

Ginger was called home to Heaven to be with the Lord on November 3, 2022 at the age of 41. She was a very intelligent quick-witted free spirit who made everyone she met laugh. She was a loving sister, daughter, wife, and friend.  Her infectious smile would light up a room.  She was loved by everyone she met. She was an avid animal lover and loved to travel every chance she could with her friends, husband, and co-workers.   Ginger received her Master’s Degree from LSU in Pathobiological Science in 2006 and went on to graduate from Southeastern School of Nursing in December 2013. She worked at both Ochsner Hospital campuses in Baton Rouge and New Orleans and met great faithful friends who supported her throughout her entire career. A special thanks to the staff at both hospitals for her exceptional care and especially Melissa, Ioana, and Yvette for all their tireless care, especially in the last month. No words can express their devotion and love to Ginger and our family. Also, Bridgett at hospice was a wonderful help and comfort and stayed through the end. Ginger is survived by her loving husband Peter and their “children”- 6 rescue dogs. She will be greatly missed by her mother and father- Pat and Doug Robertson, sister Marcy Bernard and brother-in-law Matt, niece Cate and nephew Brock, brother and sister-in-law Brian and Patricia King and niece Olivia and Randy and Pauline Gray and niece Megan, as well as numerous aunts, uncles, and cousins.
