On December 29th 2021, the entire Trickett family met up in St. George Utah for one last celebration of life and of family, and of being together before our beloved Gerry - wife, mother, grandmother, would move on from this life. We brought a ton of food to feed all 46 people that were there, and some beautiful pink flowers just for Gerry.
There were 2 large houses across the street from each other that everyone stayed in. One house had a pool and a hot tub which was the hub for swimming, games, food, and fun. The cousins all had a ball playing together all day and all night long...Grandpa was a trooper and got into the pool in his clothes, just to spoil those cute little granddaughters...;)
We took an hour away from everyone and met my mom for lunch so that she could see Kierra and her kids that she doesn't get to see very often. It was so nice to see her beautiful smiling face, and feel connected to her too. After all, we CAN'T go to St. George and NOT see my mom!!!
Cherie put together a ton of photos of Gerry's life into a video, and we all sat down together in the family room watching it, along with some smiles and also some tears. Everyone seems to know that Gerry will not be with us much longer, and we are trying to soak in every possible minute together that we can.
I am so grateful for Heavenly Father's plan of happiness and that we KNOW that our family will be together forever through the blessings of the priesthood and the temple.
