She directed several adult and children's choirs as well. Also, Miss Gerry loved to dance. She never missed a chance to dance with her daughters and grandchildren.

Survivors include her five children: Nancy (Gus)Wise, Connie Newton, Bud (JoAnn) Hall, Marie (Paul) Tappenden, Pam (Mike) Nesmith - all from Panama City; her twin brother: Jerry Purdie of Michigan; 13 grandchildren, 17 great grandchildren, and numerous nieces and nephews.
Miss Gerry was preceded in death by her first husband and the father of three of her children: Jarold (Jerry) Hall; her second husband and the father of two of her children: W.C. Daniels; her parents, Charles and Blanche Purdie; her brothers, Chuck and Bill Purdie; and sister, Lois Clark.
The family will receive friends from 6:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m. Thursday, April 11, 2013, at Heritage Funeral Home.
