Geraldine Lusiak Obituary
Geraldine Barbara "Gerrie" Lusiak, age 94, formerly of Mont Royal Dr., Toledo passed away on Tuesday, February 12, 2019 at Landings of Oregon. She was born on March 29, 1924 in Toledo, OH to Anthony and Helen (Wasielewski) Barabash. Gerrie was a graduate of Woodward High School.
