Gina was born and raised in Williamsburg, VA. She met her soul mate, Earl L. Soles, Jr. while both were working summer jobs in Williamsburg. After a brief courtship, they married.

Upon Earl's retirement from Colonial Williamsburg, they moved to "The Havir" on the Piankatank and resided in their dream home Earl built. A few years later, Gina retired from Greenwood Pre-School.

Gina was a true friend to everyone she met and had unconditional compassion for her family. She was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother and friend. She will be dearly missed by all who knew her.

She was a member of Lower United Methodist Church.
