I worked with Ger as I called her for 10 years. I learned so much from her. She always had a smile and a twinkle in her eyes. And her Irish brogue was a delight. Wish I would have kept in touch. Deepest condolences to the whole family and may she Rest In Peace.

Deepest sympathies to all of Phil's family.
Phil was a wonderful and gentle person and so proud of everything her daughters and grandchildren did. I will miss herself and Tony coming to visit as they used to, but find comfort knowing they're together.
May she in peace.

I was an obstetrician/gynecologist at Ravenswood Hospital from 1980 to1992. Fresh out of my residency, Mrs. Geraghty taught me everything I needed to know about the care of post-partum and post -op patients. Using remedies that were often simple and homey, she always knew exactly what to do to make the patient comfortable. She was wise and witty, always kind and upbeat. When I came to the post-partum floor and was greeted by Mrs. Geraghty and her twinkling eyes, I knew that everything would be alright.
Over the years, I often thought about Mrs. Geraghty and the invaluable lore of knowledge she shared with me. I am deeply saddened by her passing.
I extend my sincerest condolences to her large and loving family, May her memory be a blessing to all of you.
Sincerely,
Marcia Siegal, M.D.

My deepest sympathy to Elizabeth´s family. I worked with her at Ravenswood hospital. She was my greatest mentor and learned a lot from her. Thought about in the past few years. Wished we stayed in contact. She will surely be missed.
