Gina Neal (Dane) of Kearney, MO, died peacefully on the morning of Wednesday, May 24, 2023 after a decade long battle with breast cancer. Gina was 55 years old. The family is deeply saddened by Gina’s death but take peace in knowing she is in a much better place. Gina was born on January 29, 1968, in New Castle, IN where she lived the majority of her life. Gina was born the youngest of five children to Floyd and Lilly Dane.
Gina went by many titles; daughter, wife, sister, and mother, but her most endearing title was GiGi. Gina's family was her pride, joy, and life's work. She even claimed her children’s friends as her extended children. Gina attended Blue River Valley High School and was a member of South Side Church of the Nazarene in New Castle.
Everyone who knew Gina knew how sympathetic, caring and loving she was. Gina was full of light, joy, and positivity, traits that were obvious to all after even just a single meeting with her.
Gina is survived by her husband, Jerry Neal, son, Aaron Neal (Lyndsie), daughter, Tayler Neal (Ashley Woods), grandchildren, Kynzlie Neal, Maddax Neal, Jayden Bedell, Kiana Bedell and Daven Bedell, sister, Wanda Richmond (Ron), nieces, Tina Porter, Kelly Moran (Matt), nephews, Jeff Dane, Quentin Dane (Diana), Kris Dane, Todd (Lorie) Richmond, great niece, Britney Limburg, great nephew, Jaymen Porter, sister in law, Pat Dane, father in law, Henry Neal, sister in law, Jenny Massengale, brother in law, Jason Massengale, and an abundance of cousins, nieces, nephews, and friends. We will miss Gina more than words can say.
