Ginger Gooch (lol) was appointed to the court by Missouri Gov. Mike Parson who spoke highly of her calling her a "loving mother, dedicated wife, and proud woman of faith." And with a name like that, you'd assume she would have lost her faith, but the Gooch has kept it, even after her husband Chad Munsey was confused but fine when she didn't formally take his own name after they married. Ginger Munsey isn't as funny and she knows that.
When I was in high school, I hung out with a guy named "Gooch." Curiosity got the better of me, and I asked why everyone called him Gooch. Turns out, it was his last name, not a nickname as I'd assumed. No lie: I told him with a name like that, he'd end up as a supreme court justice or junky.
