There are more words in my heart than I could possibly ever speak about my precious aunt Geraldine. She was my best friend, a second mother to me, a trusted confidant, an inspiration to me for my whole life. For about the past 17 years or more we talked every night, sometimes in the day also. We supported each other in our widowhood, health issues, as most of all in our love of Jesus. I have a great void in my heart since her passing. God bless her children Ronnie, Donnie, Sharon, and Kevin.

Geraldine was a beautiful soul and a gift to all that knew her. I was blessed to have her in my life as a precious aunt. I am so happy I got to visit her last October. I will miss her amazing wit, laugh, intelligence and personality. My sincere condolences to Ronnie, Donnie, Sharon, Kevin, and all of their families! Rest In Peace aunt Geraldine!
