Gina was born on April 21, 1955 in St. Paul to parents Clifford and Carol (Houle) Dupre. She attended Centennial Schools and graduated with the class of 1974. Gina attended 916 Vo-Tech where she completed a degree in hairdressing. She worked at her aunt Doris’ Houle Hair Design for a couple years and later worked out of her home for a short time, before taking a job at Nelson’s Grocery in North Branch where she worked in the Bakery and Deli Departments. Gina later took a job as a Dietary Aide at the Birchwood Healthcare Center in Forest Lake, where she worked for nearly 20 years before her health forced her to leave the job she loved. Gina married Scott Wiberg on May 11, 1975 at First Lutheran Church in White Bear Lake. Gina and Scott eventually settled in Harris to raise their three children, Sherine, Nicholas and Shonna. She loved baking and cooking and was proud to have her “Taco Sloppy Joes” recipe published in the Goose Berry Patch Cookbook. She will be remembered as a sweet lady who was devoted to her children and her church and always saw the best in everyone.
