Geraldine graduated from Screven County High School, where she enjoyed playing basketball
for her alma mater. Later in life she received her in-home daycare provider license and training

At an early age, she attended Waters Grove Baptist Church. During her adulthood, she started

in many roles in the church, she was a member of the kitchen staff, True Love choir, and served
