latives. She wrote that she wants to be re-
membered "as an artist and a presenter of
artists to children and adults. She was a
communicator and a concerned human be-
ing towards all the problems of humanity.

She believed in one world, no war; peace
among all peoples." Gina was once asked
"What gives your life its purpose and mean-
ing?" She responded, "The beauty in music,
art , nature. The kindness of people. The joy
in having a pet. The smiles and joy of chil-
dren. The possibility of peace in this beauti-
ful world we inhabit. All mankind living in
peace." Her career as a singer embraced op-
era, recital, orchestra appearances, theatre
and folk music. Some of her performances
have been with the Royal Belgian Opera in
Brussels, the Pittsburgh and London Sym-
phonies, "Call Me Mister" on Broadway and
many New York recitals. Gina traveled around
the world and collected songs in many lands.

She sang in 22 languages. She performed for
children as an ambassador for the U.S. In-
formation Service under its Cultural Ex-
change Program in India and Africa.Ginia's
maternal family has roots in Bar Harbor, and
she owns a farmstead in Sullivan, Maine. It

free performances for children in her own
Barn Theatre, and hired various entertainers
for the enjoyment of the children. She was an
original benefactor of The Grand Theater. She
directed the Performing Arts for Children
Series that took place at the Grand. She also
sponsored scholarships for the arts for stu-
dents at Sumner High School and Mountain
