Gina was my cousin. She was born the year I graduated from high school. Although I did not know her well, I did see her from time to time through the years. I remember her as being happy and smiling. I remember reading to her when she was very young. She was a very courageous person. My thoughts and prayers are with the family

I haven't seen Gina since I was a young boy, before I left home at the age of 12. I was her cousin and often times visted Uncle Tony and Aunt Jeannette. I lived in Sheboygan for about 1 year before entering the Navy in 1963, but lived in Cascade, WI since Dec 1957. She was a lot of fun to play with as well as Mary and Rick. May God be with her always.
