Sal and my cousins, sorry I couldn't be there with you at this time. I have lots of great memories of Gerry--her laughter and sense of fun, her way of making everybody feel good around her. I remember one day when I was shopping with my 2-year old who, at the moment Gerry happened to come through the door, decided to throw a hissy-fit. My first thought was, "OMG! Her kids are always so well behaved!" She must have sensed my embarrassment and came over, put her arm around me and said, "Don't worry, they all do that." I'll always remember her kindness and all the fun we had when we all got together. Glad I got to see her last year. Love to all of you, Anita

I have some wonderful memories of playing at their house when I was a little girl. One year, Mrs. Riggio got a Mustang convertible. She took us kids for a ride on the "funny hill." I believe it was Baptist Church Road. She went down that huge hill at a great speed and then went up the next hill. It tickled our tummies and we couldn't help but laugh. It was like a roller coaster ride.
Great picture of her. That's exactly how I remember her.
God bless her and grant her eternal life.

Im sure Gerry is in heaven with mom and Bob. Your family will be in our prayers, as will you. We have so many happy memories of times gone by, such as New Years Eve's, swimming, dinners out, cards, and celebrating Sals and my B'Day together. Of course Msgr Schneider and OLP Bazaar, and miniatures, etc etc etc!!! Almost forgot, the fun times spent in Jeff City while Sal served on the board of Healing Arts. Gosh, there are so many happy memories! Gerry was beautiful inside and out, and Sal was also such a a very dear and loving friend! (not to mention a great Dr for my daughter!) May God give you the strength at this time, and may our friendship last forever!
