Ginger Boley Stephenson, 79, of Raleigh, North Carolina, passed away peacefully in her sleep at her home on February 4, 2026, following a courageous battle with brain cancer.

Born on July 18, 1946, in Clinton, North Carolina, Ginger lived a life rooted in faith, family, and service to others.

brought people together and made everyone feel welcome.

She is survived by her son, Brad Stephenson; her daughter, Haley Stephenson Vonnoh; her sister, Evelyn Arrington; and her four beloved grandchildren: Tripp Vonnoh, Reese Vonnoh Jones, Jeffrey Stephenson, and Emmett Stephenson.
