Geraldine lived a faithful, Catholic life while raising her family. Her early career as a RN served her well throughout her entire life. She was an avid reader, enjoyed talking religion and politics, loved football and watching her children and grandchildren play sports, dining out, traveling, and she especially loved finding her bargains while thrifting. As she always personalized her writings, “Love and Prayers Always, Mom”.
