I sure do remember Gerri and her voice of reason pops in my mind so many times! Hard to believe we lost her in April 0f 2004. Gerri had IBC. She had such a rational, practical approach to how she lived out her time. I admired her so much. I was lucky to live nearby and had some special moments with her. Wish I had known her sooner! She was always so encouraging to me. When I go to the beach- I visit her favorite beach in Strathmere, NJ, and breathe in deep and remember. She was a special person.
She had a party planned for when she passed away and we threw her an "online party" too. I still have the page up- can't seem to bring myself to take it down just yet.

For those who might be late comers to this board, Dory was a poster who we will remember as one who gave of herself so others survivors might smile. She always kept this board moving with her inspirational poems, jokes and riddles. Most will give Dory credit for energizing this board. She was an inspiration to everyone on this board. In that spirit, let us
continue to post in Dory’s memory so she might smile down on us and give us the same inspiration. Therefore, we have named the board, Dory's Board, in her memory. 11/11/01 (Dory was the first to call attention to the significance of 9/11, re: WTC tragedy, i.e. 911 for emergency). Let me be the first to note all the ones in the above date, indicating she was No. 1 on our board.
