I was so sorry to hear of Aunt Gerry’s passing.  I remember during the few times I came to visit as a kid with Grandma, Aunt Gerry was always so nice to me.  She would always make a ton of great food and made you feel welcome.  And when she came to visit us, I liked that she could always make us laugh.  Please know that I am thinking of your family and pray that she is at peace.  Love, your cousin, Terri (Chunta) Gritzer
