She met the love of her life James (Jim) Macey and a family was born. Tammie (Lewis Marchant) and Cory (Serena Macey) will be forever grateful for her love and guidance which was given everyday of our lives. A proud and devoted Omi (grandmother) to Sydney Marchant and Chase Macey. There has not been a more caring soul, Wife, Mother, Sister and Omi than Gitta. Her strength was an inspiration to us all. She will be forever missed and forever cherished.
