Sandyston - Geraldine "Gerri" Anne Eginton, age 74, passed away on Friday, December 29, 2023 at Newton Medical Center. Born in Jersey City to the late Henry J. and Anne (Hannon) Richert, Gerri was raised in Jersey City before moving to the Stockholm section of Hardyston and has lived in Sussex County for most of her life. She was employed by the Division of Senior Services of Sussex County, which was formally known as the Office of the Aging for over thirty years and retired in 2011. Gerri was a beautiful person both inside and outside and loved to help everyone she encountered. But, her biggest joy was spending time with her children, grandchildren and her precious great grandson, Levi. Besides her parents, Gerri was predeceased by her brothers, Alan Richert and Kenneth Richert both in 2020; her brother-in-law, Michael Eginton, and her former husband, Ralph Brown in 2021. She is survived by her husband, Frank Eginton, III; her son, Frank Eginton, IV of Sandyston; her daughter, Kelly Fahey and her husband Chris of Lafayette; her grandchildren, Brianna and Brooke; her great grandson, Levi; her sister-in-laws, Nancy Eginton and Nancy Richert; her nephews, Michael Eginton and Kenny, Billy and Christopher Richert; and her niece, Erica Eginton. Private cremation services have been entrusted to the Pinkel Funeral Home, 31 Bank Street (Route 23), Sussex. Online condolences may be offered to the family at www.pinkelfuneralhome.com
