Gerry
Gerry has been gone for several years. she was a frequent poster to message board. she had one very loved Cairn named Tootsie. Gerry made many friends at TC. One of them was Shari who adopted Toots after Gerry died.I didnt have Gerrys photo to post but here is Toots, her beloved girl who is now with her Mom at Rainbow Bridge and Beyond.
(sorry the photo isnt there. will correct and add later)

Re: Gerry
Fran thank you for remebering dear Gerry I was in close contact with her till she died some 9 years ago she was a VERY brave lady who ;last thoughts were for her beloved Cairn
There were lots in the TC that resented her Tootse having a home with Shari
May I say Tootsie had a wonderful last years with Shari it was Gerrys wish she went with her.
I left the TC after the small minded ppl who made such a fuss at Shari taking her. Shari took her not to impress TC but out of the goodness of her heart Gerry was a very dear friend of mine and I knew exactly her wishes
RIP Gerry I will NEVER forget you

Re: Gerry
Tootsie was a wonderful little girl - being that she lived in Arizona where sometimes the temps are in the hundreds, Tootsie did very well in Illinois and really like snow too. She would love to just lay on the deck and look at the birds. She loved her tennis ball as well. I was truly honored that Gerry decided to let me take care of Tootsie. Shari

Re: Gerry
I remember that Sheils and knew that Gerry wanted the home for Tootsie that she picked. I know many were upset by that, but I was happy that Tootie was going to a home where she was wanted and loved.I was so sad to read that she died, but happy to know she was reunited with Gerry.

Re: Gerry
Oh, Sheils...this was before my time...didn't know anything about this. But....I can't understand why anyone would be upset that her Tootsie got a loving home from another TC member. YIKES! What was the alternative? This is just so very, very sad....
Hugs, Jeanie, Jolly & Annabel

Re: Gerry
I remember Gerry well. She was one of the early TCers, a nurse, and Toots was her devoted companion. Gerry was a very warm and level headed person, with a good sense of humour. From memory, Toots was a wheaten Cairn with a black mask, very cute, already quite mature when Gerry died.
Thank you Fran, for reminding us of old friends. Maureen

Re: Gerry
I remember Toots, didn't really get to know Gerry. But it sounds like Toots was indeed happy, wasn't she? RIP Tootsie and Gerry.

Re: Gerry
Gerry was such a caring lady, She and Toots were regulars back then. It was a time in my life when I was dealing with my husbands illness, I got many many encouraging e mails from Gerry. I hope she knew how much I appreciated that. Gerry and Toots together forever, just the way it should be. xxxxBetty and the Girlies...
Shari, That's a wonderful photo of Toots, thamks for letting us see it.
