We have lived across the street from Gina and Lou for almost 24 years. We moved here from Everett and were expecting our first child. We knew nobody. Our first day here Gina came over and invited us over to her house..We had drinks and she made us a nice meal. After that we became good friends and shared many happy times. Our children loved going over their house and having Gina's great meals. She was a wonderful loving caring person. We thank her so much for all she has done for us over the years. Life isn't fair...Let us all pray for Lou and be there for him, he will needs his friends now. They were a great couple, and life just won't be the same without GINA AND LOU...

I have lived across the street from Gina all 20 years of my life. She was a great neighbor that always knew how to make people laugh. Not only was Gina a neighbor to me but she was also family. Everybody on Cresthaven Drive will greatly miss her and her awesome sense of humor. I will never forget Gina and may god bless her soul.

Gina will always be in my heart. She was a loving friend. One of my greatest treasures and fondest memories of Gina was one afternoon poolside I commented on a silver cuff bracelet she was wearing. She took it off and gave it to me. All of the moments spent with Gina have been special to me. She now joins my husband. They will never be erased from my heart.

TRUDY AND I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER THE MANY TIMES WE SHARED TOGETHER ALL THOSE NIGHTS AND ALL THOSE LAUGHS WE HAD GOING OUT TO DINNER THE SUMMERS PLAYING BACCI AND SWIMMING. GINA LOVED HAVING COMPANY.

WE WERE SAYING HOW LUCKY WE WERE TO HAVE MET THE BOTH OF YOU. WE WILL ALL MISS HER GREATLY. WE ARE SO SORRY AT HER PASSING. SHE WAS A ONE IN A MILLION LADY, AND WE ARE SO GRATEFUL TO BE CALLED HER FRIEND.

SHE WILL ALWAYS BE IN OUR HEARTS.



TRUDY, LOUISE,

NANCY, SWEETIE & ROBBIE
