Had the honor of taking care of you for a bit before your passing. I had just become an aide that year and you claimed me like I was already one of your babies. I could tell exactly what you wanted just from one look. I miss your "eye roll" at the goofy people that didn't understand you and your hugs like it was yesterday. Love you always Gemma..

Jeanie,
I am so sorry to hear about sweet Gemma. I just heard and I am so sorry I was not there today. She was truly an angel. Joe has waited a long time to see her again and now they can be together.
God Bless your family and you!
