Gerna was so kind to me when I was trying to find out more about the Vail family. I am the son of Hazen C. Vail, who was brother to Gerna's dad Talmadge. I was born in the USA and never really got to know my family in Canada, Gerna and I somehow connected by mail back in 1989 or so. She told me she was preparing a book about the ancestry of The Vails of Bull Moose Hill. We stayed in touch via mail, and she sent me a copy of the finished book. It was a work of love and devotion and I copied it and passed on to my three kids. We never stayed in touch, as people often fo. But I have never forgotten her and her kindness. I'm sure she is missed by all who knew her.I was looking through the docs she sent me years ago in a senior moment of nostalgia. I tried Google to contact Gerna and found her obituary. I sit here with tears in my eyes.

To Gerna's family,
Very sorry to learn of Gerna's passing. I worked at the DOT in Norton during the winters in the early 90s. I always remember going to Donnie and Gerna's for a meal in the time leading up to Christmas. The meal was always great and the banter between Gerna and Merritt was even better. Great times for sure.

Dear Cathy, Brenda and families so sorry for the passing of your mom, she was a special person and a great friend to our family. I think her and mom called each other every morning , “the hot line” we would tease. They also had a friendly competition on to see who could feed and name all the birds that came to their bird feeders. Mom always had her bird book handy in case Gerna called to describe a new bird. I expect the two of them are catching up in Heaven no doubt in my mind! Hugs to you all and may your memories bring you comfort, strength and joy over the next weeks and coming years.
