Geri Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 This is Geri's husband writing to let you all know that she passed away peacefully in her sleep Tuesday last. LC was not the cause but the chemo that she had for breast cancer significantly damaged her heart. I know that she made a lot of friends both on the site and in real life through the site, and was able to find the cofounder of the Boston lung cancer walk that way. The walk is her legacy and I am very proud of what she achieved. She is a prime example of lung cancer being defeated, and she has given strength to a lot of people by demonstrating that. My best to all. Richard richardanorris@comcast.net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaminkw Posted December 3, 2011 Share Posted December 3, 2011 Thank you Richard. I always think it is so kind when member's family takes time from their grief to speak to us. It also gave me a chance to see that smiling photo of her I loved so much pop up on our site. May the days pass gently for you and yours.

shineladysue Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Richard, I am so very sorry for your loss. Geri was a very special lady. Her beautiful smile, her sense of humor and most of all her positive attitude will be the memory that will live on in my heart and mind forever. Sorry to be late writing, but I haven't checked in here for a while. Thank you so very much for your kind post and know that you are welcome here always. Hugs, Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
