Such wonderful memories will always remain in my heart. How very loved she was by all of us and took wonderful care of my mom or Kel as she called her. Aunt Gert you will be sadly missed...but NEVER forgotten. You left us with a lifetime of memories that we can share with generations to come. You will always be in our thoughts and prayers. Love, Marianne
