Gerry Ferraro dead at 75



Gerri Ferraro, Mondale VP candidate,  US Representative from NY, teacher and attorney died of a form of blood cancer today. Her candidacy for VP is considered a watershed moment for woman's rights. She was 75 years old.

Sarah Palin called her a Pioneer in the sense she led the way for other women through her candidacy for VP along side Walter Mondale in 1984.

She passed with her family at her side at a Massachusetts hospital.

I was impressed with Geraldine when she was appearing on news programs with Sarah Palin after the election. She treated Palin with respect and kindess. That was pretty cool. Sorry to hear about her passing. She was still young by today's standards.
