Ginnie Carver Obituary (1959 - 2025)

Ginnie Lee Carver, 66, of Waynesburg, KY passed away on Tuesday, December 23, 2025 at University of Kentucky Hospital in Lexington. Born on December 18, 1959 in Savannah, Georgia to the late Patricia Walker Burtt. Ginnie's career was as colorful and diverse as her taste in music. She served for many years at Keeneland, working closely with the Chef on the executive floor. Her job as a waitress was not just a means to an end; it was a window to her soul. She loved the hustle and bustle, the camaraderie, and the opportunity to bring a smile to someone's day. Her love for rock n roll music, with favorites from Metallica to the Beatles, Pantera to Pink Floyd, added a rhythm to her life that was as unique as she was. Her adventurous spirit was evident in her recent attendance of a Metallica concert, proof that Ginnie never stopped living life on her own terms. Her love for animals, especially her two dachshunds, was a testament to her nurturing nature. She was a caregiver at heart, always ready to offer a helping hand or a comforting word. Ginnie was an individual who danced to the music of her own life, and in doing so, showed us all the beauty in being true to oneself. Survivors include two children, Brian Morrison and Misty Carver; two sisters, Julie Howard (Kelly) and Charlene Valentzas (Danielle); two grandchildren, Duran Brown and Shay Pena; and one great-grandson, John Jr. She is preceded in death by her mother, Patricia Burtt; and stepfather, Roy Burtt. A private family service will be held at a later date.
