Gerry M. Forsyth

She is survived by her loving husband of 44 years, Bob Forsyth. Between Gerry and Bob they have nine children, Donny, Denny, Patti, Johnny, Bobby, Kenny, Diane, Starr and Jimmy. She was the proud Grandma of 17 grandchildren and 18 great-grandchildren with two more on the way.

Gerry retired from the Elmhurst Press Newspaper after 21 years as their receptionist in 1992.

She was a people person and loved being around family and friends. Her house was always ready for whoever might come to visit.

Gerry was involved with the Crystal Lake Senior Center and was an avid game player. Her favorite was Bunko.

She will be sorely missed by all who knew her.

Our sincere thanks to the wonderful folks at Northeastern Illinois Palliative and Hospice Care for all their service.

The visitation will be from 4 to 9 p.m. Friday, March 1, at Querhammer & Flagg Funeral Home, 500 W. Terra Cotta Ave., Crystal Lake. The funeral service will be at 10 a.m. Saturday, March 2, at the funeral home. Interment will be in Forest Home Cemetery in Forest Park
