We are so sorry for the loss of your sister, Mother, Grandmother, Great-Grandmother and friend. I have known Gerry most of my life and have been able to call her my sister-in-law for 38 years. We could not travel there, so our body's aren't there but our hearts are with each and everyone of you. She has been Jim's big sister all of his life, I am so happy he talked to her Tuesday, as he called her once a week. We always made time to see her when in NY and took her out to eat as long as she was able. We also had the pleasure of Gerry and Pete staying a few nights with us in Pigeon Forge. She surely will be missed and we are glad she no longer has to struggle or be in pain. She will be with her parents and all of us have gained the perfect guardian angel!!!!
