Beautiful Geri from the heavenlies where angels sing out your lovely name pray for me, my sweet friend. I shall miss you always and always!!!! From our outings with your mom and George with my grandparents Jean and Carl on Travel, New years Parties and riding the bus everyday together to and from work downtown, all those fun conversations!! How beautiful you always looked, perfect hair and a fashionista, a smart dresser, beautiful blue eyes! Always a faithful friend. From 1977-2019 our nickname was Bright/Bell even to our last conversation July 2nd. I remember you visiting Honolulu after i had returned and what fun we had!! You loved the arts and loved the dramatic! You never got over me meeting you at the bus stop dressed as an elf one Christmas on our way to work!!!!!! You loved theater, and I a performer, cherished every show! We were just meant to be friends from the first moment! Forty two years has gone by fast! I will continue to miss you!! Aloha nui loa, and a hui hou! Until we meet again!!! I feel that I am missing a part of myself now.

Geri was a vibrant and fun individual, full of life and zest and enthusiasm. It was very sad to read of her passing as she was a stalwart member of the Breakfast Club for many a year. She will be missed.

Geri was a really good friend, we corresponded very often via email and her presence at Doelger Senior Center was always welcomed. Her thoughtfulness and loving concern for her many friends at Doelger will be missed. Sending my prayers, love and heartfelt condolence to her family. Donna Pineda

I was very saddened to hear of the sudden death of Geri. I first met her many years ago when I worked at Merrill Lynch where she was a client. After my retirement I lost contact with her and by a nice surprise I met her again at the Doldger Sr Center where I now volunteer at a exercise class and at several of our senior functions. We also had in common our love for animals. Geri was a great lady and will be missed by many people who were lucky to have known her. I hope she did not suffer to much with this sudden illness.
