It’s with broken hearts that the family of the late Geraldine Mckay of South Brook, NL, age 78 announces her passing from the Green Bay Heath Center, NL, September 16, 2021.
Geraldine J.M Mckay was born on September 16, 1943, in Pelley’s Island, NL, to Ralph and Stella Anstey. At the young age of 17, in August 1961, she married the love of her life, Selby Mckay of South Brook. Geraldine and Selby raised four children together. They were later blessed with lots of grandchildren and great-grandchildren, whom she loved dearly and cherished deeply. She was a devoted wife and mother and surely loved all her grandchildren.
Geraldine was soft spoken. She was always the one to make sure everyone else was ok before herself. She was the rock of the family, the one who kept everyone in line. She looked at the best of every situation. She loved beyond measures. When visiting her home, you would not leave hungry. She was passionate about her friends and family.
