I had the good fortune to have my locker right next to Gerri's. She was such a sweet gal! On graduation day when we wore our robes and caps all day, Gerri had a white tassel on her cap, even though she was an A student. She showed me her report card and some of her grades were A3, which disqualified her from a gold tassel, so I traded tassels with her for the day so she could have the gold tassel she deserved.

Gerri and I were car hops together at the Adobe Drive-in at 3550 Cedar Ave, when we were both
16 years old. It was a fun job, and she was a fun girl. I saw her after her daughter was born.
She lived near my house and brought the baby over to show me. I lost contact with her after
that. She was a very nice person. I am saddened to hear of her passing.

Much sympathy to Gerri's family.
