GD had a beautiful smile. She loved her family and they loved her. She loved her Yorkies almost as much. She liked to bowl and also played co-ed soccer with her husband when they lived in Pleasanton, California. She loved country-western dancing and together with her husband, saw most of the United States in their motorhome after they retired. GD retired from the Pleasanton, California police department after 18 years of service. Before that she was a buyer for several major department stores in Pittsburgh where her job took her to New York frequently. She also owned her own clothing store in Pleasanton. She will be deeply missed by her family and especially by her husband. A viewing will be held at Ruffner Wakelin Prescott Chapel, 303 S.
