I got the opportunity to meet Beautiful Geraldine because of her sweet daughter, Fanae. I've never met such a big and kind personality, not to mention ALWAYS in full make-up and hair. The only time that I saw her with no make-up was driving her home from the hospital and she HINTED to me that she was out of mascara. So, I stopped at Wal-Mart even though she begged me not to. I was at her house the first of this month to paint her nails PURPLE, and all she talked about was her family. I will miss bringing you meals straight from mommy's garden and all the Facebook messages from you. You are loved and will be missed immensely sweet soul.

My dear sweet Aunt Geraldine I will always love and miss you. You taught me what it meant to be a Christian and the true love of Jesus. You are my spiritual rock. I will be forever grateful for everything you've done for me.
