Geri worked at Rukgaber Hardware on the Square and later at Zelinski's Hardware in the gift department as a young woman. She joined in the ownership of Sitler's Electric with her husband Richard in 1976. She thoroughly enjoyed being the Lighting Showroom Manager in their store in Marion for many years. She enjoyed playing in the Bridge and Pinochle marathons for many years where she and Richard were tough to beat. She loved being a mother and playing the role as a Grandmother to many children in the community.

She is survived by one daughter, Lana Weeks of Big Sur, California; and many nieces and nephews.

Geri was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Richard in 2010; brothers, George, John, Lawson, Douglas, Woodrow and Cloyce Crone; and sisters, Emily Lins and Phyllis Jones; and one niece Judy Crone.
