My memories of Gina go back a long way to when she came to Italy with her mother and sister Adelina in the summer of 1954.They came to visit my mother and all her Italian relatives and also to see the small poor village where her mother was was born in the mountains of north Italy. I remember a beautiful young lady with a beautiful smile (I was very young at the time).I never saw Gina again till we came to visit her and the family in Richmond and I found that same beautiful smile from a gentle lady with a wonderful family. After we said our good byes I remember Gina at the door -never to see her again but never to forget her.Renata

Gina-Gina — how many years have we known each other? Since 1953, when Gene and Bob became classmates and friends at Rose Hulman, Terre Haute, IN. Then graduating together in Class of 1957.Gene spent numerous hours at our apartment in Brazil, IN. Gene lived at the fraternity house in TH, so quieter at our place. One weekend at Rose was a couples event. Your parents thought it would not be proper to come from Cleveland by yourself to IN. You were permitted to stay with us, since we were married and Bob 6 years older, so we were considered as chaperones by your parents. Over the years our friendship developed and grew. You are remembered as young, beautiful, friendly, great personality and all good positive qualities. Always in touch by phone, cards, etc., and so very proud of your family.You are loved and missed by many. Always like a shining star in the sky.May God bless.Love, Bob and Helen Stearley
Dear Gene and Family,We were so very saddened to hear of Gina's passing and though we didn't know her well, we knew of her loving and giving ways of caring for you Gene, and for Diane and Jim as they grew into adults and raised their own families.A devoted Wife and Mother's heart is forever with her family and her hug lasts long after she lets go. We know this is true for Gina, that you will ever feel her close by and how much she will be missed by all of you. David and Debbie SmithRichmond, VA
Our memories are from 50 years ago though I've known Gene since grade school. Coincidentally, Donna and I were married on Gina's 20th birthday. When Gene and Gina lived in Seven Hills, their neighbor (a friend of mine) was building a sail boat in the back yard. In 1966 Donna and I moved to Seven Hills. We spent more time together as Gene and I did a project with the NIH and Cleveland Clinic.Bob and Donna Mercuri
I've known Gina since I met her daughter, Diane, while we were both training for the United States Air Force. Diane and I became fast friends and we've been close ever since. Gina was at countless holiday and family events. She was always so friendly and kind. You could always tell how much she loved and was loved by her family. It was obvious how proud she was of her daughter and most of all her grandchildren! She was a dotting grandmother always eager to cuddle a baby or offer to help. I'm so sorry she had to battle Parkinsons at the end of her life. Her family will have many memories to cherish forever. May she Rest In Peace.Laureen Waldron and family
Gina and I became friends while we were working at JCP. We continued our friendship after we retired. Gina was a sweet person! She was a happy person!. She seemed to enjoy her job. She loved her family and she was proud of them. She will be missed by so many people. Everyone at JCP thought a lot of her. Gene and family, my deepest sympathy to all of you.Betty Michael
Dear Gene and Family,We are so very sorry to hear of Gina's death as she has gone thru so much. I met Gene and Gina when I started to date one of Gene's frat Brothers Jack Wilcox at Rose for the Theta Xi Fraternity. I got to know Gina when we had home coming and all the Fraternity activites , dinners and the fun football games. We always enjoyed all the fun of everyone getting together and just having a good time.We know as a family that you will have many cherished memories that you will have of her thru life and we hope that these memories will help you thru the years a head.With Our Love and Deepest Sympathy,The Jack A. Wilcox Family
An amazingly beautiful woman and dedicated family. Wishing many blessing to the entire Mrava family.
