Dear Geri was first my teacher at LT and then a lifelong friend. What a gentle, loving, and wise soul. God bless you, Geri. You're my role model as a teacher. Your smile and those twinkling eyes I remember now brighten heaven even a little bit more.

I want to express my symathy to the family and friends of Geri, of whom there are many. Geri was one of my best friends having entered the convent together in 1948. We were also somewhat related with my brother John married to her sister Ruth Mary. We always said we were sort of "sister-in-laws." I will miss Geri but rejoice with her that she has now received her eternal reward - union with God.

I want to extend sympathy to all of Geri's family and friends - of whom there are many. Geri and I were best friends as well as somewhat related considering my brother, John, married her sister,
Ruth Mary. We have stayed close these many years and I will miss her but rejoice with her as she now enjoys her eternal reward - union with God.

I was saddened to read of Miss Olson's passing. Miss Olson was my freshman English teacher at LT. She was exemplary in the way she treated each person with respect, graceful, always cheerful, and thoroughly prepared. Miss Olson took on new challenges to stimulate students. I remember a segment she taught on reading The Bible as literature. Miss Olson, your lessons are timeless.

Geri was a veteran teacher when I began teaching English at LT. She was very nurturing, kind and caring. I know that she positively impacted the lives of many students and faculty here at LT.
