She married Richard Mostert on March 11, 1954 in Delhi and they moved to California while Dick was in the Air Force.

Gert will be remembered as someone who loved to give handmade gifts to others. She especially loved to send greeting cards. Most of all, she loved large family gatherings.

The family would like to send a very special thank you to Nancy and Darlene for the very helpful caregiving they gave to our mother, grandmother and great grandmother for many years.
