I worked with Geraldine at the UA and she was one of the most beautiful person I could have ever worked with. She was easy to talk to and always loved hearing her stories. She will be greatly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with her family during this time but always keep her memories close in your hear. I know I will!

I worked with Geraldine at the United Association. She had a very warm and friendly personality. She and Rosa Clements were like my work moms. My sympathy and prayers go out to the family.

Terri and Angie,

Words cannot express what your mom/grandmother meant to so many people. She was a very unique and rare spirit. A spirit that touched each life that she encountered in a special way that made one want to hold on forever. It's hard to let go, but I know it is what she would want. She wants to meet her creator and thank Him for the great race she ran. She wants to hear Him say, "well done good and faithful servant... you may enter in."

Though we won't see her on this side again, I believe that if we believe in God's word, we will encounter her again.

My prayers are with you as you travel the emotionally challenging path to recovery.
