My family was a neighbor of Geraldine. Art, Loretta, Kay & Peggy Engelbrecht. We lived next door to Earl & Lenna White. We used to call them Aunt Lena & Uncle Earl. Those were wonderful times back in Waterford. Gerry was a great friend to our family.

Although we have not been in touch, Gerry has not been forgotten. She let us grow a field of veggies on her Johnson Rd. lot,and I have two pieces of "farm furniture" that she gave me. Every time I go by the house, I think of her. She was also my 3rd grade teaching partner(1970-1972-Springfield). She was a good woman I was happy to know.

Most wonderful teacher I had all the way through school. I was sad to hear of the loss of her. She will always be etched in my heart as my favorite teacher. Third grade at Springfield School was a wonderful time because of her.

Dear Dear Gerry, I will miss you. We became friends during the last two years and it won't seem the same walking to and from the elevator without waving hello or goodbye to you. We became friends and I look forward to meeting up with you again at Jesus' feet. Praying you through, JoEllyn
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

My deepest sympathy to the family. She was my 3rd grade teacher at Joy school and I remember her well. She taught me a lot. Especially how to behave in school!
