Geri, as she was known to many, worked many jobs but in later years, as an LVN, both at Lake Forest Good Samaritan in Denton and at Pecan Tree in Gainesville. The job which gave her the most joy was being a cook and server at Lake Dallas Primary for 10 years. Geri was an avid reader of mostly fiction or a good mystery. She was a diehard Sooner fan andwould be found watching football or girls' softball with her husband, John. A generous woman of both time and her treasures, she was always putting others above herself. Her family was her most prized possession, although she could strike up a conversation about her beloved dogs at any moment.
