Some people in life are a blessing while others are a lesson……if you’re fortunate enough, a few magical ones will be both. Gina Jo Hagen, 68, of Three Rivers, MI passed away as both (a magical one) on January 14th 2026 in Plainwell, MI. She was born in 1957 in Three Rivers, MI, to Sonya Burnham (Dennis) and the late Albert Dolan. She is preceded in death by step-father Dale Brundige and brother’s Jeff Brundige, Dan Dolan, and David Dolan. She is survived by brother’s Jim Brundige and Don Dolan. Gina also leaves behind her daughter Autumn Marie Hagen and son Jonathon Henry (Jacqueline) Hagen. Her lessons and blessings will continue on through them to her beloved grandchildren, Maddox Miguel (Riley Jean), Huck Henry, and Kyser Marie. Gina was a charismatic force to reckon with, intriguing and mesmerizing everyone whose path she crossed. Whether she was running the largest beauty salon in the state or barbering out of her own little Southside shop, she befriended and enamored anyone who sat in her chair. She’s been described as the most beautiful girl in church, the coolest mom that ever lived, the kindest lady in her apartment complex, the funniest gal in class and the most generous woman in town. Even when she had nothing, she found something to give. Both a lesson and a blessing, Gina will continue to guide her loved ones from above. Lucky are they whose lives were touched by such an enigma, for her blessings and lessons will be eternal.
