    Gerry was the " mother" of the floor at Light Fab. Always with a smile, sweets, pepperoni and cheese. A mother with a family and a friend to all

    GG, you will forever be in my heart, your smile was everything. You and Georgia are one of my favorite people, always made me feel like one of your own. I remember you baking me my own cinnamon apple cheesecake every year for my birthday! Your deserts are the best!! Love you GG and may you sleep in peace.

    Jerry was a wonderful person to everyone. I loved seeing her big smile at work every day. I also loved her baking. She would have a mob around her when she brought us one of her specialty like her cheese cakes. She will be missed dearly. Rest In Peace Doreen Demchock
