Gertie had a kind, loving Spirit. I use to hear that I had a twin and we looked so much a lot. We were short a like and we did favor. Cousin Gertie touched the lives of all those she came in contact with; she made their lives better and if you were in not so good of a mood, when you came in the Presence of her, your mood would become joyful! You would be smiling and laughing, she had a sense of humor about herself. Cousin Gertrude you will be missed. I'm so glad you are not suffering any more. I am glad you are in a good place now; and don't have to be concern with all of what this world has going on you are in Peace. R.I.P.
