She was preceded in death by her husband, Elliot; parents, Joe and Fiora Gherardi and brother, Jimmy Gherardi.

The family thanks and appreciates the following people for making it possible for Gina to live out her life at home: Dr. Sandra Qaseem, Dr. Soumya Reddy, members of Alliance Hospice Care Team for their excellent care over the past few months and her wonderful, compassionate caregivers for the care, love and comfort they provided during the past four years.

Cremation has taken place. Service and internment will be held at a later date at Santa Fe National Cemetery, where she will be laid to rest with her husband, Elliot.
