We encourage you to share your most beloved memories of Geraldine here, so that the family and other loved ones can always see it. Share your favorite stories or comment on those shared by others.

Paul and Family,

We were so sorry to hear of Gerry's passing. She will be so missed. Some of my favorite childhood memories are of the Emmert family apple picking, climbing trees and eating all the fruit I could pick. I enjoyed so much the pictures Mom and Daddy showed me from last time they were at the farm. And I so wish my children could have had to opportunity to know Gerry. They would have loved her. Our thoughts and prayers are with you this week and always.

Love to you all.

Dear Paul & family,

I wanted to send my sympathies to you all on your family's tremendous loss.
While it has been many years since I last saw Gerry, I will always remeber her sweet, gentle and kind spirit. As a child, I can still remember her maiking me feel special when she spoke to me; not just a kid that should be "seen and not heard".She had a special way of being able to share her faith by demonstrating it in how she lived and by the way she treated others. The world may have lost a talented and grace-fiilled woman, but heaven gained one. Wishing you all of God's peace and grace during this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Ben Behrman

How we take things for granted! I never thought there would be a life without all of your kind family in it. And that is the word that comes to mind when I think of your family - kind. I hadn't been up for so long that it was hard to even remember everyone the last time I came to the Emmert reunion. It was great to return home and that was how you all made me feel. I will always remember you guys as a special part of my childhood. As these sad days move into the past, know that I am thinking of all of you and praying that God's comfort will be with you. May the ache in your hearts be eased by the blessing of Gerry's memory.
