Gina Mayer
Gina Maria Mann Mayer, 50, of Wolf Point died June 7, 2021, at the Billings Clinic.
She was born Nov. 25, 1970, to Clarence and Carol (Irwin) Mann in Wolf Point. She grew up in the Wolf Point area where she attended elementary and high school and graduated from Wolf Point High School in 1989. She also attended Dickinson State University.
She was a member of the Prairie Chicken Clan and enrolled member of the Three Affiliated Tribes. She was outgoing and a hard worker she was one of a kind. She was a devoted mom, raising her two children as a single mom and always making sure her family was provided for. She loved to cook, always going above and beyond making the most extravagant meals.
She loved the fact that she now held grandma status. Even though she could only see pictures of her granddaughter as she grew, she still held her in her heart, with the hope that she would one day hold her granddaughter in her arms and have that special bond with her.
She held many jobs throughout the years including Ronan Wellness Center, 4 Bears Casino & Lodge, Farm Service Agency/USDA, Fort Berthold Housing Authority, West Electronics, Silverwolf Casino and her parents’ business Mann Trucking, where she learned bookkeeping and secretarial duties. This was definitely her most memorable job working alongside her parents.
On June 29, 1999, she was united in marriage to Richard Mayer, they resided in New Town, N.D and were blessed with three beautiful children, Baby Boy Mayer, Chaselynn and Steven. She called them her miracle babies. She felt blessed because the doctors told her she may possibly never be able to have children. They later divorced.
She is survived by her children, Chaselynn Mayer of Wolf Point and Steven Mayer of New Town, N.D.; one granddaughter; sisters, Deb’e Chase Bell, Kelly Driftwood of Wolf Point, Alison Mann Jackson of Murfreesboro, Tenn., Tammy Lawson of Tampa, Fla., and Joy Mann of New Town, N.D.; adopted sister, Deborah King Wells of New Town, N.D.; and brother, Sheldon Mann of Eagle Butte, S.D.
She was preceded in death by her son, Baby Boy Mayer; and brothers, Mike Mann, David Mann, Donald “Boy” Mann, and Justin Mann; sister, Iva Mann.
Her funeral will be held Saturday, June 19, at Blue Sky Ministries. Interment followed at Greenwood Cemetery. Clayton Stevenson Memorial Chapel was entrusted with arrangements.
