May of my happiest childhood memories are of Gerd, Bjorn and Kenneth. My deepest sympathies, you are all in our prayers. I can picture the reunion between Gerd and Bjorn and Ruth and Finn Nord. Coffee and krumkake for sure!

Beautiful, peaceful, stubborn, hilarious, cheerful, and bright... just a few words that describe this courageous woman. She is a wonderful person on a level that I cannot even explain in words. Mama welcomed me into the Skisland family with an immense amount of love and opened arms. I am going to miss her smile and laugh the most...I can still hear it ringing beautifully in my ears. I am very blessed to have met Mama, and I thank the Lord that she is a part of my life. I am at peace knowing that we will meet again in heaven <3

I remember what a gracious & kind woman Mrs Skisland was as I was growing up with her son on 54th street in Brooklyn. She greeted her sons friends like me with a warm smile and a sweet treat and kept her home as beautiful outside as she was inside . I am sure she is at peace with God now.
I would also like to express my deepest sympathy to Ken & Jill for the loss of their mother. I will remember you all in my prayers. Thank you for sending this link so I could express my feelings & memories.

Det var med stor sorg vi fikk vite at Gerd gikk bort på bursdagen sin. Når vi tenker på henne, er det med takknemlighet for alt det fine vi har hatt sammen helt siden hun giftet seg med Bjørn. Vi husker alle Gerd med det varme smilet og den smittende latteren. Det var godt å være sammen med henne. Hun hadde et åpent og godt hjem og vi var alltid velkommen. Hun fikk oss til å føle oss som hjemme når vi kom på besøk.Randi har ekstra mange gode minner om Gerd og er veldig takknemlig for vennskapet deres. Særlig godt husker hun den flotte, lange bilturen som hun var med på sammen med både Gerd og Bjørn. Gerd var et lysende midtpunkt og en god støtte for alle hun var sammen med. Minnene om Gerd er gode å ta med seg videre i livet.

Kenneth posted a condolence
Dearly loved, deeply respected,admired for her positive attitude,always smiling and laughing."Mama" as she was known to all my friends was always someone who would listen, care about our needs and troubles. She was strong when she needed to be and kept "Papa" going when he felt ready to give up during his years of illness. The Lord chose to let us have her for 33 years beyond her life threatening Pulmonary Embolism in 1977. So many have been blessed to have known her.
I am humbled when I think of the parents that brought me into this world and how they established the first generations of our family in America.
Jesus has called her from this place and for this I rejoice. Well done good and faithful servant.

Ken and Family,
I did not know your mother well, but she was a friend of my parents, and I remember hearing about their visits with each other. I always enjoyed her whenever I met her. Please accept my sympathy.
