Not sure what to say?

Aunt Dot (I almost never called her Aunt Gemma) meant a lot to me and I was happy to have spoken with her in March 2014. She was my godmother and one the smartest, kindest and supportive people that I knew. She was loving and loved me my entire life from the moment my parents asked her to be a guiding light in my life. (My mom and Dot went to high school and part of college together. They also were sorority sisters in Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.) Aunt Dot was an inspiration to me and I...

Gemma and I dated during our high school days at Fairfax High. I had an opportunity to see her again and meet her husband at our 30th high school reunion. They both seemed very happy and Gemma was glowing. It's so clear to me that she was loved by so many, which is not a surprise at all. Even 40 years later, I remember what a good person she was through and through. Rest in peace, Gemma, and hopefully, Jack, your sadness can be eased a bit by warm and wonderful memories.

I enjoyed working with Gemma when she came into Sparks Justice Court. She was always happy and a light in my life even when she wasn't feeling well. My prayers to Jack, her babies (dogs)and family. I was blessed to know her in this life and I'm sure that she's one of the brightest lights in heaven. Rest in peace.

I remember Gemma as one of the most happy people I've ever met. She lived life to the fullest and was always upbeat even when she wasn't feeling well. She loved giving parties and I always will remember her Christmas parties in particular; her house was immaculately decorated and she beamed at having all the guests and you could tell how much she enjoyed everyone. Rest in peace my friend.

Years ago I saw Christmas tree ornaments shaped like wiener-dogs and HAD to buy them for Gemma. She was so tickled and I remember how happy that made her. Glad I could make her smile one day to pay her back for the many times she made me do so. I know she is in a better place, free of pain, but she is missed down here. Prayers to her family during this difficult time.

The short time I knew Gemma she was a very sweet women who loved her husband and dogs.She talked to me often about her mom in whom she admired and her husband whom she said was her best friend. She talked to me about her life growing up and her passion for law and how she wanted to give back to the community. She enjoyed camping and road trips with her family as she had told me they had taken,and to look in her eyes as she spoke I could see how happy she was and how much she loved her...

I will miss Gemma's smile and laugh the last 20 years I have known her. She always had BIG plans and ideas that were encouraging with a never stop attitude. Prayers to her loved ones and pups

The loss of Gemma is felt throughout all of our lives and our hearts. Gemma's kind and generous spirit is undeniable. I thank God for bringing her into my life and for bringing Jack into hers. Gemma, I thank you for all the advice, the laughter, the friendship and the parties. You were the BEST party giver! I will pray for her sweet husband, her pups and for her entire family.

I worked for several years with Gemma in the DA's Office and she was one of the most sincere individuals I had the pleasure of working with. She will be greatly missed. Nell
