I only saw Aunt Gertie a few times after we moved to California, but I remember her always being warm and friendly. She made you feel special, and that she really cared what you were doing. I wish I was there to pay my last respect. Please know that she is in my prayers.

I've known Gertie for 56 years, and will miss her very much. We shared many family memories over the years. I enjoyed her company the last few years when we were able to get up to Wisconsin to visit. She was always a joy to be around. I'll miss her terribly.
