Geraldine A. Testa

In Loving Memory of Geraldine (Gerry) Testa

Geraldine (Gerry) Testa was a loving mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. A devoted Catholic, she prayed for everyone. She always did the right thing, guided by her deep and unwavering faith in God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Growing up, she shared that faith with us in everything she did. She raised us with strong morals, instilling in us the values of kindness, honesty, and humility. Her strong work ethic was more than admirable—it was inspiring. She led by example, teaching us not only how to work hard but how to live with purpose and intention.

Our mom was strong and determined, raising two little girls on her own. Freedom and independence were deeply important to her, and she was a proud American through and through.

She cherished the friendships she built over the years and loved her many dear friends deeply. She was fun and loved to socialize and dance.

Gerry leaves behind her two daughters, Patty and Christine; three grandchildren, Zachary, Alec, and Trisha; a great-grandson, John; and her two beloved sisters, Susan and Virginia.
