Aunt Gerri was so full of life! She always enjoyed family get togethers. We don't know why she had to spend her the last month in the hospital, but Gods plans are not always known. The last time I saw her there, she still kept on a happy face for me and her sister Ann. She can now go rest and get off her bed of affliction and spend eternity in Heaven. It isn't easy to say goodbye to another loved one, we will miss you and thank God for the time we had to spend with you. God's grace will get us through it all.
