Condolences
Mom, I miss our walks in the garden and looking at the butterflies on the butterfly bushes, and feeding the birds. You always looked forward to seeing the roses in bloom and watched for the friendly garden pet, Hoover, the groundhog, who would greet you looking for a piece of your desert. You enjoyed watching the fish in the aquarium and I would add new fish now and then. I'm sad that we could not visit you in person because of the Covid virus but we did get to celebrate your 86th birthday through the window. I know that now in Heaven, you can hear your music, sing, and dance like you could not do for quite a while. Say Hi to Dad for me.
Gerry (Pewe) I would call her and the other residents would like that at the nursing home ware I took care of her. Gerry loved her kids! Kathie her daughter would always decorate her room for every holiday! She was always anxious to show me something new! And when her son would come to visit she looked forward to her coffee and her favorite, cheesecake! When I did my last rounds for the night Gerry always told me that she loved me and blew me a kiss and always told me to tell my husband and our dog Ace,hello as well. My husband would bring our dog in to visit with her. She loves her animals! She was a sweet lady! I'm gonna miss her smile! But I will never forget her,!
Gerri, I remember our lengthy chats in Shop Rite and you and Kathie stopping by my dad's room when he was at Warren Haven. It meant a lot to him. You had a wonderful family. I know how much Kathie, Joey and John miss you. You had a good life. You helped make the world a better place for the people and all the kitties whose paths you crossed.
I first met Geri while volunteering at the shelter. She had quite the personality and a lot of energy and a love for animals. I hope you are dancing and drinking a Budweiser. Thoughts and prayers to the gang. I know you will be sorely missed.
Geri was a little spitfire with the energy of people half her age. Her love for all animals knew no bounds. For many years she volunteered at the animal shelter caring for hundreds of cats; feeding them. cleaning cages and comforting the sick and injured. Geri also volunteered at the wildlife rehabilitation center and loved every minute of it. Her own personal menagerie, she considered her other children and the wildlife on her property was always well fed. Geri also loved my animals and considered them part of her family. When she went into the nursing home, my dogs and cats would visit her climbing into her bed and smothering her with kisses. I believe all her animals and mine who crossed the Rainbow Bridge were there to greet her and say we're glad to see you again.
I know Geri and her sisters, Honey and Jean are dancing up a storm in Heaven and singing all the oldies.
God bless you Geri. Will certainly miss you.
Love, Karen and kids
Kathi and Family,
I am sad to hear of your mom's passing. She was a sweet woman the few times I met her. Please accept our sympathies during this painful time.
Regina & Dave
You called me your third son. It was you that knew Kathie and I were right for each other and brought us together. You have been with us from the beginning and now you had to leave us. I'm sorry we could not be there to say goodbye in person. I will miss you dearly, mom. Rest now and look forward to us being with you again when God calls us. We will see you later.

Hi Mom, I was going to try to get up to see You, Kat Joe & John, but this Corona Crap stopped that. I seen a cartoon the other day & I can't remember it all, but it said I'm still kicking. I will never forget You use to say I'm still kicking, but not as high anymore. well tell everyone Hi for me. Miss & Love You.
So sad, Mom, that we could not visit you over the past few weeks due to Covid-19. You were spared from the virus, but God felt it was time for you to come back to him. You are with my Dad, your Mom and Dad, and sisters Margaret (Honey), and Jean. I am sure there was a stampede of our pets to greet you while you passed through the gates of Heaven! We will care for our rescued cats and homeless strays, and feed the birds in our yard, just as you used to do. I know you will watch over us - there is no doubt. This is not "Goodbye." "See you later!"
The staff of MacFadden Funeral Home extend our deepest condolences to you and your family on the passing of your loved one. Please accept our heartfelt sympathy for your loss. May our thoughts and prayers provide comfort for your family during this difficult time.
