Dear Fred and Donna,  Tom & I are so very sorry to hear about the loss of you mother Geri.  I (Linda) recently too lost my mother, so truly know how you feel.  Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.

Dear Lyn & Tom  So very sorry to hear of Mom's passing.  She made my day when she'd stop in my shop and give me her expert advice.  She is a beautiful person and I'll always remember her smile.  Luv Cosi Rofot

I am very sorry for your loss. Geri was so fun to be around.  she never had a frown. I have know her since I was a little girl as she was a good friend of my mother Virginia and Aunt Marcia.  My prayers are with you and I am sure that big wide smile is shining down on all of you.   Karen Pellegrini-Basher

We are very sorry to hear of Geri's passing.  Everytime we saw her she had a huge smile on her face and was always happy to see you and cared about how you were.  The pictures you posted here are great - showing what a full of life, happy person she always was.  Our thoughts are with you all.   John and Kelly Stressinger

Geri & Si had such a wonderful and positive influence in my life. They both were a stunning example of true beautiful people inside and out. Geri was always "hip" to Tommy and my antics growing up yet would ,in true Geri fashion give us direction with humor and love. I still to this day think she only bought some items (raviolios) in the pantry for me. Her smile, quick wit, style, smarts and compassion are the foundation I see in her children today. Geri and Si had by far the biggest impact in my life and to this day I can say much of who I am(good parts) are due to what I saw in them. They tought me so many things about how to live and be great parents there is not enough on this page to list them. I don't think saying I will miss Geri is the right word as I feel her spirit is always with me but I will miss my visits on my return to Buffalo. She was the high light of my visits with her quick wit, smile and reminders that she always knew what I was up to but still loved me regardless. Rest peacefully Mom.  Christopher

Dear Fred, Lyn and Tom,
Our condolences for the loss of Aunt Geri. She always knew how to live life to the fullest. We really loved her a lot and always appreciated the love she showed us in return. She will be missed on this earth but now she can be reunited with Uncle Mariano for all eternity, and I'm sure they will be happy. Sorry we can't make it up to be with you guys and support you but I hope you know that you and Aunt Geri are in our thoughts and prayers. 

Love Nick and Camille

Dearest Geri, you would light up a room, be an intriguing conversationalist at a dinner, and the best dancer at a party. When I would see you at various events and functions my heart would feel light as I knew I would be embraced and involved in happy and humorous discussion. You would impart freely and often the most fitting pearls of wisdom that has impacted me and my life to this day. 
You will be greatly missed and never forgotten. My love to you and your family always, Trina

Dear Tom and Family...my thoughts and prayers are with you. Your moms warm and lovely smile will always be remembered by so many. Thinking of you today.

I'll miss you Aunt Geri. You we're always so full of life and happiness. I'll never forget your huge smile every time you walked in the room before saying hello to everybody. I know that you wouldn't want us to be sad because you never were and nothing could ever bring you down.

Smiles and laughs, good times I will always share memories with my friend Geri.  She will be missed by many. Goodbye  friend. Carol Damico.
