Joanie Gerdon
Jerry, Joanie, Eddie, Michael, Mark, Brittany, Nick and all extended beloved family members of Barbara. I send each of you my deepest sympathy's. Since Barbaras passing my mind has been a running video of the treasure trove of memories and precious moments we shared over the years. Alot of tears, but so much laughter and fun too. Barbara's laugh was the best and I made it my mission to say every off the wall thing I could think of just so I could hear that laugh. Barbara carried such heavy crosses in her life's journey, but through it all, it was her faith and her family that provided her the joy and the strength to keep going. Each one of you were so talked about and loved and most important to her very being. The root of Barbara and I's connection began with her "Love of my Life" brother Joe. I feel so grateful and blessed to have had both of them in my life and I take comfort believing that Barbara's beautiful heart and soul is at peace and that God has his loving arms around both of them. Sending each one of you my love, my thoughts and my prayers.
