We lived beside the Geigers years ago and lost touch. I thought of you all many times, but had no current addresses. I was sorry to see Dotties obituary. I always enjoyed her smile and conversations. Wishing the best to her family, I know you will all miss her. She was a ray of sunshine. sandy leonard

To the Geiger Family,
I am so sorry to hear of Dot’s passing. I personally didn’t know her very well, but I do remember your family. Kathleen is married to my late husband’s cousin, Larry Spangler, and I know Fran and Walt. I will include Dot in my prayers and in my daily Rosary.
