Mrs. Geraldine Miles taught me in 5th grade at St. Vincent's and she was also my Math tutor for the summer, so I'm so sorry to hear about your loss, but I'm sure she is up there in heaven teaching everyone Math or some subject because she was always great at what she did best!! Lots of prayers & hugs!!
