Geraldine Mullen

Geraldine “Gerry” Clark Mullen, 77 peacefully passed away on Saturday, July 18, 2015 at the Elizabeth House in Flat Rock, N.C. after a long struggle with the effects of Alzheimer’s disease. She was born on January 27, 1938 in Big Flats, N.Y. to Ernest and Edith Clark. In 1965 she married Roger Leroy Mullen. Roger preceded her in death in 1997. She was an avid athlete, particularly as a bowler and in fast pitch softball. As an accomplished seamstress she had a love of craft projects particularly her door stop mice, quilling, cross-stitch, and her son Grayson’s early Halloween costumes. She was involved in many community activities, serving as Brevard Elks Lodge Bingo Chairman for 20 plus years and as a volunteer at S.A.F.E.’s Attic. While in Rochester she coordinated the annual Lake Shore Golf Center Men’s Invitation Golf Tournament for many years. Gerry always cared for everyone she knew as a friend, and her greatest joy was spoiling her three grandchildren.
