My Friend Gerry!

 

Hi!  My name is Brenda and I have created this site for my good friend Gerry's birthday which was April 27.  I wanted to give her something special that would be enjoyed by her for a long time.

Gerry and I go back a long way.  I was maid of honor in Gerry and  Jim's wedding and she was maid of honor for Ron and I.  Until seven years ago, we lived two doors from each other.  I used to tease her that "Two Doors Down they were laughing, singing and having a ball" just like Dolly Parton's song!  We always celebrated our birthdays, vacations and any other important events together.  It was always pretty neat that our birthdays were one day apart and we ended up married to brothers (go figure!).  In the past seven years due to living further away from each other (they are now about 25 miles from us) and the time constraints of work, hubby, my children and grandchildren and other obligations that tend to eat up time, we have not been as close as we once were.  

Gerry is a person that does not toot her own horn.  She is a very giving person and would do anything for anyone - no questions asked!  She has a kind heart and is very, very sensitive.  Her best friend passed away almost two years ago and it has been very hard for her.  

Gerry loves to cook, do all kinds of crafts, and enjoys being around friends.  She has an eye for decorating that just amazes me.  She has spent most of her adult life taking care of children.  All of the children in the family just adore her and Jim!  Her and Jim have no children of their own, but I have always kinda figured God knew what he was doing because they have partially raised her niece and they have been there for so many children in and out of the family.  Gerry always remembers special things about people and it takes a special person to be so attentive.  She always seems to know just what you would like and will take the time to either make or find that special something for whomever she is bestowing her gift upon.

They both have a wonderful sense of humor and it's a good thing - Jim's birthday was a month before mine (his March - mine was the day after Gerry's - April 27) and I added a birthday page to this site to "honor" Jim turning 50!  Hehe~  Don't want him to forget how old he is!  If you would like to "rub-it-in" take a minute to sign the guestbook on his birthday page!  

You will find links at the bottom of each page throughout the site to aid in your visit.  If you are looking for graphics to aid in website creation, please feel free to visit my site - Brenz Dezigns
