Gina, thank you for being my best friend in band and showing me the ropes of the drum line. Thank you for all the good times we had together...and the serious times too. I always trusted you and knew I could tell you anything. I'll always remember riding around in your little car with Jo and Kathy. We were quite the quartet! I always remember our shared love of chicken soup and ice cream sandwiches. You're the one who taught me to swear...and I still do...so in that aspect, you'll always be with me. Thank you for taking Cheyenne and I to church with you, I have very good memories of that. That you for being my maid of honor, we had a lot of fun that day! I'm sorry we grew apart, but I was looking forward to getting to know you all over again. Thank you for being my friend and please know that I love you very much. Be at peace, Gina.

Gina, Gina, Gina. Not only my cat sitter but my friend as well. The laughs we had, the crazy texts we sent -- I will truly miss that. I am so sad to be without you. I know that you are in heaven with your Mom and with Louise. You were a wonderful person with a big heart -- you cared for people and you were an animal lover. My kitties will miss Aunt Gina -- but not as much as me. I will love you and miss you forever my friend. Rest in Peace beautiful lady. -- Judi B

You worked for the state, and I for the village. We worked the night shift together, and I often stopped in to see you to share laughs, our lunches and watch your favorite movie, "Thelma and Louise"...Then we were separated by situations and retirements, but I missed you my friend...Then mysteriously, you came to me in a dream about a week ago, with that smile and laugh that I enjoyed seeing from you. And now I know why you did that, and I'm glad you did, to let me know you were just fine, and all was ok..kisses Gina.....David

For all of us, your friends, we will miss you so terribly much. A caring person that took care of animals, children and the elderly. True to her band at the church and wouldn't miss practices. I will miss our game nights and our dinners together but, I will miss you more.
