Aunt Gerry was very special to me and I will miss her very much. She always made me feel at ease and could talk with her without worrying about what she would think. I have many memories of her when I was at their house with her family. We were all very close because brothers married sisters and that gave us a special relationship with each other. Rest in peace now and please know you are very much loved.
