To the Family of Mrs. "G",
My sister and I worked for your Parents at Cranberry Hall in the 70's. What a great place to work. They instilled a wonderful work ethic in us all. We were like family. I have many fond memories of that place and the people that worked with us...Still have to have raisin sauce with my ham to this day... our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Fred and Family,
Sorry to hear about Mrs. Gerber. You have our deepest sympathy and prayers. I was a waitress all through high school and partime when I was in College. Mrs. Gerber was a like a second Mother to me and my 2 sisters. All 3 of us worked at Cranberry Hall for many years. Your Mother and Father were our second family. We will always be grateful for all they did for all three of us. My husband and I had our rehearsal dinner before our wedding at Cranberry Hall Dinning Room. We had a great time in spite of the fact that the power went out, after the main course.
We will never forget when Mr.and Mrs. G (as we affectionatley called them) took us to the Lamont to experience a first class restaurant. Through that event and in many other ways your parents treated us with dignity and respect. They were a classy couple who taught us the importance of treating others like they treated us.

I worked at Cranberry Hall 1971&72, the best place to eat anywhere and remember so well Mrs. Gerber, that's what we called her, standing in her gift booth, surrounded by candy. She could be tough at times but we knew she really cared about us. I loved my time working there! My sincere sympathy to her family during this difficult time.

Sincere condolences to the family of Mrs. Gerber. We at Harmony EMS transported her to dialysis for a long time and we always enjoyed the trip with her. She was such a nice lady.
