She especially enjoyed going on car rides and visiting Dairy Oasis with her daughter, Julie Woomer. Dining out with family and taking trips back to Benezette, PA to see the majestic elk were among her favorite pastimes. Geraldine's warm spirit, and love for simple pleasures left a lasting impression on all who knew her.
In addition to her parents, Geraldine was preceded in death by her brother, Richard Shewan.
