WHAT A WONDERFUL,PLEASANT, GIVING LADY. IT WAS MY PLEASURE TO HAVE HER FRIENDSHIP AND TO DO HER HAIR FOR MANY YEARS. MY SYMPATHY AND PRAYERS GO OUT TO ALL HER FAMILY. 
LINDA (YVONNE’S BEAUTY SALON)

We loved being neighbors with Geri– she was so kind and loving.  I remember when we first moved in, Geri was so welcoming to our three young children– her favorite line about the kids was, "God love ’em!"  She was accepting and supportive of our family life and always had a thoughtful word or action.
We miss seeing her smile and working out in her yard– she had an admirable work ethic and her house and gardens were impeccable.
She loved her family and was so proud of her children and grandchildren, and always had wonderful things to say about you all.
We feel blessed to have had Geri in our life and send our sincerest sympathy to you all.
Beth Ann and Joe Hinnenkamp
