Aunt Gevie, as we called her, was a good woman. Always pleasant whenever I encountered her. She was strong- in spite of her small size! I always had so much admiration for her. She always made me feel good being around her. I will miss her, as we all will. Her daughters, ( cousin Bonnie and cousin Kelly ), are proof that she was an awesome mother and person! Will hopefully see her some day in Heaven, along with Kelly and the rest that have gone before. Bonnie and Bill, you´re in my prayers. I love you.

I will miss my sweet "Gevie." We have been close ever since I married her brother "Jeep" Moyer. We were more like sisters and I will miss her as my blood sister. I pray that our Lord Jesus Christ will raise us together when He comes to take His people Home.
