Gerrie was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend. She was the co-owner of Derma Culture Skin Clinic as well as Smoothie King. She enjoyed cooking for her family, especially her gumbo, roast and white beans. She loved nothing more than spending time with her family, and her greatest joy was seeing her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Her personality was larger than life and she never met a stranger. She loved Drew Brees and was a huge Donald Trump supporter. She will be dearly missed by all who knew and loved her.
