She volunteered with the Heart and Stroke Foundation, the Saint John Regional and St. Joseph’s Auxiliary and was a member of St. Pius CWL. She belonged to the in-house committee at Brentwood Tower, where she resided and hosted many coffee parties that were enjoyed by the residents. Geraldine loved Christmas and for years decorated the lobby at Brentwood for all to enjoy. She was also a wonderful seamstress and known to all her friends and family as an amazing baker. She adored her family and loved her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She will be missed by her family and many friends.
