I worked at Grandview for a bit, and was able to get to know Gerry.  I am also a graduate of Donegal High School, when we discovered that we had this in common we shared stories about the Mount Joy/Marietta/Maytown area.  Last month I was at Grandview for a meeting, and we were able to have a brief visit – and as always, Gerry helped me find the right person in the right office. Keeping you and her family in my prayers, hoping that your memories will comfort you.
