IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Georgina (Gina) Kay
Blough
May 7, 1946 – November 18, 2025
Georgina (Gina) Kay Blough, age 79, of Hastings, Michigan, passed away on November 18, 2025. Born May 7, 1946, to George and Luella (Smith) Slocum, Gina was a proud graduate of Hastings High School and spent over 30 years serving her community through her work at Hastings City Bank. She was also a dedicated member of the Middleville Rotary.
On October 28, 1995, she married the love of her life, Berny Blough. Together, they shared a passion for travel, boating, and adventure—sailing the Great Lakes and exploring every angle of the Mackinac Bridge, from driving over, sailing under it, flying over it, to standing atop it. Gina loved to cook and read. She also enjoyed casino trips and cherished time spent with her family, especially her grandchildren. Her warmth, humor, and generosity made her a friend to everyone she met.
She was preceded in death by her parents and siblings Marguerite (Bill) Butler, Joan (Bob) Baines, and Bob (Katie) Slocum.
Gina is survived by her husband Berny; children Tony (Katie) Hayward and Tiffany (Brandon) Greenfield; stepchildren Jake (Jennifer) Blough and Hillary (Victor) Blough; grandchildren Troy (Shayne), Travis, Kara (Charlie), Lucas, and Cole; three great-grandchildren; and lifelong friends Mary, Joan, and Jane.
A Celebration of Life is being planned and will be announced in the near future. Memorial contributions may be made to “Always Leave Smiling”, https://www.barrycf.org/funds/alway_leave_smiling_tom_watson/, a Barry County Community Fund supporting Barry County residents facing cancer treatment expenses.
