Dear Uncle Joe, Cousins Linda and Joe and families, Deepest condolences in your loss.

We'll always remember Aunt Donna for her quick, warm smile and the kindness she always extended to the grubby Gergits' from the top of the hill. She always represented the 'Cool Aunt' in our world and it was always a better place when she was near. We wish you only the fondest memories of swimming parties, pink chiffon Jell-o, Spaghetti-o's and her laughter in the warmth of the sun on a happy day.

All our Love,
Carl T. and Mary E. Gergits
