Mrs. Ginsel was a longtime member of Felders Chapel Assembly of God Church. Bea as she was commonly known, was a housewife for many years until a new venture as joint ownership in a convenience store materialized. At this time she became cashier, stocker, bookkeeper, janitor, and any other position that presented itself.

As a younger woman she was excellent as an embroiderer. She also lived on a farm and did many things in that role, not limited to but including canning, churning butter, feeding cows and chickens, picking watermelons, slopping hogs, planting a garden and the list goes on. She also loved to play dominos as well as play different card games. She spent many hours along a creek bank as well as in a boat fishing alongside her husband. She acquired the nickname of Granny Two Five from one of the grandchildren while jumping on a trampoline and was affectionately called that for many years. She will be missed by many.
