Geri was a wonderful mother and wife whose sense of humour and smile would light up the room. She had a beautiful voice and was very proud of her Irish heritage. She was always willing to break out into song without hesitation and all who heard her will never forget the sound of her singing O Danny Boy. The image of her dancing in her unique way to Proud Mary is etched in our hearts. She loved her husband, her children and her life. She and Paul, who is a Past Commodore, had many enjoyable times and formed many lasting friendships at the Windsor Yacht Club, where they belonged for many years. After several years of battling Alzheimer's her time has come to be restored, renewed and to find everlasting peace. It is time to come in from the rain dear old friend of ours and though the big wheels keep on rolling Pat O'Brian still is and always will be late. If you so desire, donations to the Alzheimer's Society would be appreciated by the family. Memorial Visitation Sunday 3-5 p.m. and 7-9 p.m. Parish Prayers 8:00 p.m. at Families First 1065 Lauzon Rd.
