I remember talking to you on the phone a lot as a little girl and my grandmother would always show me your pictures and postcards when they arrived by mail. She loved her little sister Geri. You had a wonderful life and were loved by many. You will be missed by all.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
