I will always have fond memories visiting Aunty Gerry in Winnipeg. Even though we had short visits, they were always full of laughs and smiles. She was a kind, funny and loving person and I’m so lucky she was my aunt. I will miss her dearly. - Posted by: Shannon Lee Greenshields (Great-Niece) on: Jan 06, 2020

We will sadly miss her wonderful sense of humour. Gerry and Ken were always actively involved with the MPI Retiree's Club. While I knew Ken from 1971, I only met Gerry after I retired in 2002. After Ken and Gerry moved out of St. Vital it wasn't as easy to get to the retiree's functions and, after Ken's passing, further involvement became impossible. While we have been missing Gerry for some time as a result we at the Retiree's Club were all saddened to hear of her passing. - Posted by: Bill Coe (Friend) on: Dec 31, 2019
