Rest In Peace Sister Georgette
You are now with Sister Jeanette your brother Curly and the rest of your family.
I will always have fond memories as a child when my mom use to do your moms hair and yours and Sister Jeanette's and all the times you came to my house growing up
and the summers I spent at the convent and having salmon pie every Friday. Then when I became a student at holy infant Jesus. Sr. Jeanette being my first grade teacher. I ask that you and Sister Jeanette watch over my family. Until we meet again
