Having grown up in foster care, Gina was a loving, generous, and patient  presence in my late childhood and early adult years.  I modeled my own parenting style after Gina and Dave’s example.  Her kindness, strength and optimism were qualities I have used my entire career as a psychologist and I will love and honor her for the rest of my days.  My heart goes out to Dave, Cindy, Mary and Paul.  Thank you all for sharing her with me. Sending you all love and peace.

I was so sorry to hear of Gina’s passing.  I remember how welcoming she made me feel when I visited with Paul during our college days. She made the best spaghetti and meat sauce.  She was a mom to everyone.  Beautiful woman with a beautiful soul.  We will pray for her. May the Lord bless her and keep her.  

I was fortunate to spend a lot of time with the Wilson family when I was young.  Mrs. Wilson always seemed to personify kindness and generosity.  I'm grateful to have her example to follow.

We especially admired the love between her and Uncle David.  Aunt Gina always had a big heart.  When you're part of her family you are respected and loved. She will be so missed and never forgotten.  Our hearts are broken as heaven gained an angel.  Sending our prayers and love to everyone who had the honor to know her. 

Aunt Gina and Uncle Dave always invited everyone to holiday dinners and made you feel like family.  Gina and her sister Angie were the best cooks ever. She will be missed by all.

Aunt Gina was a wonderful cook especially her cookies.  Always showed respect and love. 

My sweet loving Aunt Gina I will miss visiting with you on our visits to California.  Mike and I enjoyed our visits immensely with you and Uncle Dave you both always made us feel welcome and loved.  Alice and I always talked about the perfect marriage and you and Uncle Dave’s were always mentioned.  I remember meeting you and I thought of you as my special friend from the Mickey Mouse club. Annette Funicello as it was around that time we met you and you were so sweet and kind.
