    Dear Rick & family, I am so saddened to hear of Geri’s passing. We had stayed in touch all these years since I taught and coached her at Longfellow Jr, High in the mid 70’s. Both she and Teri were outstanding athletes and more importantly, outstanding people! You’re all in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult loss.
    Fondly, Mary Drey

    So sorry to hear about Geri. The Dasovich girls were admired by many in the Co. Bluffs community. Their beauty, charmed personalities, and athletic ability of both of them was immeasurable. I hope you can find comfort in knowing that she was loved by so many. May she rest in peace as she joins others that have gone way too soon. My prayers and blessing to her family and all that loved her.
