A lifetime member of Saints John & Anderw Church and was a Eucharistic Minister for many years. Loved BINGO, the casino, never missing the St. Patrick's Day parade in Binghamton. She was always happy and never without a smile. Most of all loved her family and will be greatly missed by all.
A special thank you to the staff at Elizabeth Church for their care and compassion over the past several months.

Colleen, Kelley, and Tim, Though I rarely ran into each of you, we are extended family, and I wanted to send my condolences on the passing of your mom. She sounded like a great lady. Sincerely, Diane Lia

Mrs. Tinder was such a warm, loving lady. If there was ever a confirmation, birthday, graduation, or memorial Gerry was there. In addition to her large family, she had several hundred unofficial nephews and nieces. I'm proud to be counted among them. I will miss her ever-present good nature, hugs and laugh. God Bless.
