Gerry was a kind and caring friend of my mother, Marian Brower. Gerry and Mom met at Park Lane Apartments, and remained friends until my mother passed away in 2015 at age 100! Gerry didn't like to be around big bunches of people, but Mom and Gerry still managed to go out to lunch. She always remembered my mom with a card or a call, and I am so thankful for her friendship. I will miss her gentle ways. With love to her family,

I will miss the random calls from Aunt Geri. She would call to ask how the family was doing and share information she discovered regarding the family tree. She was really interested in her roots which I can tell you are 100% Irish based on recent Maternal DNA testing Tom had done. She would not have been surprised but would have found it fascinating that not a drop of any other European group was found. Only Irish.
I found Aunt Geri to be caring and honest. She had high expectations of family and was not timid about calling people out who did not hit the mark. She loved her family and did her best to encourage those who needed it. She respected hard work and believed in taking care of yourself.
I will miss those random phone calls. You always think there will be one more call.

Gerry has been a dear friend for many years. I will miss her but cherish the times we shared. My sincere sympathy to her Patricia, Kathleen and Joe, whom I have met, and to those I have not. Joan Humphreys Bergbower
My Aunt Gerry has always been so supportive and kind to me. She was always there when I needed her and has been an advocate for me to continue my education through college. I wish I was able to spend more time with her, she will be missed by many.
Gerry was a wonderful loving woman who I just recently was able to begin having a relationship with. She was bright, funny, and caring to anyone who stepped foot in her home.
Rest In Peace and Gerry,
with love,
Lexy King
Joe, Pat, Kathy and Dennis, I am so sorry to hear of Gerry's passing. When we talked to catch up we always reminisced about my mom and dad, (Lorraine and Ed) and of course, Aunt Ag. I will miss my friend.With fond memories....Kathy "Fitz"
