Loved her first as a co-worker, then we became friends. Then loved her like a mother and sister. Hard to describe. We laughed alot. She did not hold back and spoke her mind but laughed at herself. Always cared about her appearance. She loved her family. So sorry to see her go but she is in a better place. No more suffering. See you in heaven Geri.

Geri, Jamie Lynne & many other members of Our Family loved spending time together on this beach on the Oregon Coast.

Geri relished life every day! From the Rooster´s 1st Crow to the last golden rays she explored, discovered and cherished life. She never lost faith and always searched for the goodness that she knew was in the heart of every person. Through life´s rights and wrongs she endured and spent her life enjoying the natural beauty that God´s Creation provided for Her. Last night she was the gentle rain on my roof, today she will visit on a wisp of the wind and glide on the sun´s golden rays to be forever in my thoughts and prayers as I look forward to another day.
