Passed away peacefully after a long battle with cancer. Predeceased by her mother Mary Catherine (Kitty) Matesic. Sister of Maura Matesic and daughter of Steve Matesic. Gina’s passion for learning led her to 3 graduate degrees: a Master of Arts in Canadian History, a Master of Library Science and a Master of Education in Counselling Psychology. She spent most of her working life as a librarian at various universities where her knowledge and interests were utilized.
