In Memoriam: Gina Temple-Rhodes

We are grief stricken at Perfect Duluth Day over the death of Gina Temple-Rhodes, a long-time contributor to our website and a dedicated historian who helped countless Duluthians find more information than they were looking for on seemingly any topic. Some of her work at PDD can be found on her author index, but more of it appeared in the comment section of other posts, where she pulled together hard-to-find details that helped unravel numerous historical mysteries. Most of her contributions to PDD, however, were uncredited. She was often a behind-the-scenes source for information, offering research assistance and digging up so many interesting tidbits that her work will continue to show up here for years to come. But it is, of course, her friendship that we cherish most. She was like no other. Source
