Billie Joe & family,
So sorry to hear of Gerri's death. I remember the first time I met her when we moved here in 1986 and my children were enrolled at St. James Elem. Later as we both were bookkeepers at different schools, we shared many stories together. She will be missed. You and the family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Mitzi,
Sorry to hear about your Mom. Although we went to school together I never got to know your Mom until I volunteered at SJES. She was so sweet and always a pleasure to be around. My prayers are with you and your family.
