Geraldine Smith Obituary

Doug,
With Gerri passing away it has left a empty place in the Smith family and I'm sure in your heart. Please know that we will see her again. I truly believe she was the love of your life. If you need anything we are close by.
Sam, We will always be there for you and your family.
Love, Joanna & Dusty

Our condolances the Geri's family. We lost touch long ago but she has never been forgotten. As a child she was a role model for me- she might not know how much she impacted me and from reading everyones messages- she continued making a difference. Wishing the family peace and deepest sympathy.

Grace and peace to the loving family she adored and leaves to mourn her loss. I too worked with Gerri and for her. She was truly a job to be around.

May your heavy hearts be lightened by the many fond memories of Geri, her endearing smile and warm, caring personality. Although distance has kept many of us cousins apart the cherished childhood days at Nana & Pop's house live on in us forever. Doug and family, may you find peace in knowing that she found true love in you and her days were filled with happiness. The good Lord has now called her home to share His eternal peace. With my very deepest sympathy...

Working with Gerri at AT&T will be one of my fondest memories. I could never describe how wonderful she was and how far she would go to help and do things the right way. She was truly a precious and brilliant gem. My blessings and condolences go out to the family.

I worked with Gerri at AT&T, she was a blessing to work with and a wonderful person, she will truly be missed.

I worked with Gerri at AT&T and she was always so helpful and loving. My thoughts and prayers are with the family.

I worked closely with Gerri for many years at AT&T and could not have wished for a better coworker. She was extremely intelligent, always helping anyone in need and skilled at solving complex problems that no one else wanted to tackle. I am extremely sad she did not have many more years of the retirement she so deserved. My sympathies to her family...

Doug and all of the family,
I just found out tonight and I'm praying for all of you.
Doug this is terribly hard on you I know but live on the memories, you must have some wonderful ones. I know I do and will never forget her.

Doug and Sam, may the precious memories and God's strength comfort you today and the days to come! I worked with Gerri at AT&T, learned much from her, Gerri was always willing to help in any way. What a nice and kind person, Gerri will be greatly missed.

Doug and Sam,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you. The last time I was at the house Gerri and I sat in the living room running our mouths about anything and everything while Doug and Bill were in the garage. She was a wonderful person and I will miss the talks we had while the guys were doing their thing.

So sorry to hear of cousin Gerri's passing. Some of my best childhood memories go back to our visits to Uncle Charlie and Aunt Helen's house and time spent with our cousins. I'm sure she was welcomed with open arms to heaven. With deepest sympathy. Lori Grossi (Keaveney).

I had the opportunity of working many years with Gerri at AT&T. She was the best. She will be missed by all.

Dear Doug, Sam, Matt, and Savannah,
We are so sorry for your loss of Gerri. However, we are happy that you were able to enjoy your trips and that she was able to spend some precious time with Savannah. She was a great aunt to Sarah and Wes. We know she will be watching over you from Heaven.

Gerri was one of my dearest friends. She and I thought a like. It was like we had known each other all of our lives. I loved her and will miss her greatly.
Doug and Sam- my thoughts and prayers are with you.
Sheena and Charley

Our thoughts and prayers go out to all family and friends. God bless Gerri and her family.

I worked with Gerri at AT&T and am very saddened to hear of her passing. She was a wonderful person and always great fun to talk with. My sympathies to your entire family during this difficult time.

Sad times come in every family when we loose a loved one.
Let us now think of the GOOD TIMES we shared as a loving family.

What wonderful thoughts come to my mind thinking back to Gerri as a baby. Gerri shared her family with her 3 younger sisters, a mom as stately as Jackie Kennedy and a dad (my uncle) with a sense of humor all his own.
Family gatherings with Gerri's aunt & uncle Agnes & Rudy Prucnel,(my mom & dad) my brother Walter and others were times we will treasure forever.
As Gerri grew into an adult we shared more memorable events with her extended family. I am thankful for my memories as I know all who shared in Gerri's life are grateful for the memories they keep in their hearts. We will miss you Gerri.

My thoughts and prayers to the family. I worked with Gerri at AT&T and she was always there to help. Heaven got another great one before her time. R.I.P. Gerri and I know you will be right there to assist every one who needs you in Heaven.

My prayers are with Gerri's family. I worked with G erri at AT&T. She will be surely missed

My thoughts and prayers are with your family during this time of grieving. Please know that you are not alone in remembering a truly wonderful person that meant so much to so many. Gerri was wonderful to work with at AT&T...always willing to stop what she was doing to help others. She was a great source of knowledge and will be missed.

Doug, Sam, Matt, Savannah,
Gerri loved you all so much. I know you guys were her whole world. Now she is in Heaven watching over you until you all be together again. I love you guys, and will continue to Pray and be here for you for anything you need.

Gerri, where do I even start? We are lost without you. You were the only real mom I ever had and the most amazing grandmom to savannah. She loved you so much. I remember the day she was born and you came to the hospital to meet her. as soon as matt put her in your arms she looked at you and your eyes were just full of joy. I have never seen you smile so big. I knew it was love at first sight. You were there for me through everything and always stood by dad. When I lost my only grandmother you were the one that held me and let me just cry to you. You were dads soul mate, his other half, and his best friend. We love you so very much and will be thinking of you every day for the rest of our lives. I will be able to tell savannah she got to spend time with the most amazing woman in the world. I know you will be looking down on us and keeping us safe. We love you forever.

Sam, Matt, and baby Savannah

Doug & Family, I was blessed to know Gerri & be able to work with her for so many years at AT&T. I am so very sorry for your loss and will keep you all in my prayers.

Prayers for her family and friends in this sad time. Ashley Kirkland Parker

May God bless Baby Savannah and let her know of her Grandma's love.

I am at a loss of words, Gerri is and has been a wonderful lady, friend and colleague. Gerri never stopped helping. She has been missed since her retirement by her AT&T family. Please know that you and yours are in my prayers and hold tight to those moments of joy you shared as a family.

I'm so sad, Gerri was a mentor for me at AT&T and although she threatened to retire every year was always a great source of knowledge and experience. I will miss her quick wit.

Heavenly Father, I trust in you to cover Gerri and her family at this critical time with peace and comfort. Thank you for the love and faith that you have placed in this family's life and allow it to guide them through the events that are about to follow. Thank you for Gerri, Lord. She is a blessing to many and as the oldest of four daughters, her role as a big sister and part of a family has been a purpose in her life. Lord, please forgive her for any misgivings or words left unspoken. I ask you to take her to your house with many rooms and give her new life. Please comfort and provide peace and loving memories for our family. Amen.

Aunt Gerri, I will miss you so much! We have had so many wonderful memories. You were always so understanding. You will be sorely missed, but know that you are loving spending time with Grandma and Charlie! Love you!

So sad Gerri had to leave her loving family too soon. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

My heart is so heavy with sadness right now. Gerri was a wonderful friend of mine and I will surely miss her. I remember when her and Doug got married and how happy they were and all the trips to Aruba she would tell me about. She would always ask me to tell her in great detail about my grown children because she really cared. Gerri was very special to me and my heart goes out to Doug and all of her family. I will keep all of you in my prayers and Gerri will always be in my heart.

It is with great saddness that I am writing of such a loss to our family. Gerri was a wonderful cousin and she was greatly loved by all. We will think of Gerri and learn to smile as we recall all the precious memories and how greatly our lives were enhanced because of her. Love, comfort and peace to all her family and friends.

Our hearts are heavy for the Arns family. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Gerri you have always been the most giving sister to everyone! You are loved and missed so much. Thanksgiving will never be the same. Our prayers are with you and with Doug. I cannot imagine how he is handling his loss.

Gerri,
Words can not express how much we will miss you. You were not only my Sister - in - law but my best friend. Our hearts are broken without you in our lives, time will heal them. You will be in our thoughts daily. We will NEVER forget you and we are gratefully thankful for all you have done for us. We have many fond memories that we will hold dear to us. We are thankful that god put you in our lives.
Gods peace, we love you,
