They moved back to the states, settling in California, where Geraldine was a long-time member of the South Gate Women’s Club. She also enjoyed making jewelry with beads.

Geraldine is survived by her stepson, Anthony and his wife, Dena Beard, of Bend, Ore.; sisters, Phyllis Rainwater and Sharon Oberlink, of Lake Havasu City; and two grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her husband of 53 years, Harry, who passed away in March 2001.

No services are scheduled. Interment will take place at a later date at Riverside National Cemetery with her husband, Harry.
