St. Joseph's School in Hammonton and went on to achieve her Masters of Library 
Science from Glassboro State College [Rowan]. She then taught in the Winslow 
Township School district where she was instrumental in developing their library 
program. Gerry gave her all to her career and dedicated herself to encouraging her 
students to love learning as much as she did. She was well respected and liked by her 
students, their parents and her peers. At the close of the school year each June, 
Gerry turned her attention to her beloved yard where she would plant and tend her 
many flowers and meticulously care for her lawn. 

Above all she loved her family. She was kind, welcoming and cared for all with open 
arms. She was a great listener and a conversation with her was always of great 
comfort. She was a sincere and loyal friend to many and she will be deeply and sadly 
missed.
