She would call me to check on her baby sister. I loved her for how she would tell me that. We had so many good and bad times growing up. We raised kids and partied when we could. I will miss her badly. She is my big sister 👧 I just wish she had come to spend time with me. I love you and will miss you terribly. I know probably telling Pop and Nan all about me. Love the Baby Sister !
She was - A daughter
A mother

When I think of Gigi I think of "fun times"...always so pleasant, funny, thoughtful...such a positive influence in our lives...she loved her family dearly...Jennifer your mother often spoke of your children, her grandchildren, Nicholas and Leah...you were such an important part of her life! Will forever miss times together with Gigi in Wildwood. Jennifer and Tracy, you were blessed to have such a wonderful mother and she was blessed to have you! May the cherished memories keep her close to you and help you at this time of sorrow. My condolences, Linda Guy
Aunt Gig - an innately sensitive and gentle soul with a great giggle and even better sense of humor. You were always good to me and treated me like a daughter, not only a niece. You always had uplifting words for everyone. The world was a better place with you in it. Rest In Peace, my Aunt. Love you always, A.
I am completely heartbroken that you’re gone so soon and if I could have just one wish in my life it would be that you and dad are now dancing on the clouds together. Love you both so much!
I am completely heartbroken that I don’t even have words yet but I pray you and dad are together right now dancing on the clouds. I love you both so much!!
I will miss your hugs and smiles and always telling me to be positive, but most of all making me always feel like family when I needed you and that the most in life. Love always- Jules
