Kelly, Tom, Jack, and Gerry, just a note to offer some thoughts. Aunt Margaret became so special as we got older. She was the anchor between our families. I know you will miss her so.I will miss the visits we shared. She gave us all, that connection to our past. We will miss her dearly. Our thoughts are with all of you. Love, Don Geddes and Family.

Kelly & brothers,

I can't imagine how hard it must be to loose your mother. I know that there is some relief after watching her be sick but there will be times that you will still wish you had her to talk to. I think that it is unfair that someone who reaches an age like 91 has to face cancer, then again there is nothing fair about cancer.

Take care of each other. Talk of her often especially with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, she lives on through you.

You are all in our thoughts and prayers.
