So hard to believe that Gerry hasn't been with us for this many years. What a guy! I always enjoyed him. He always had a good word to say and a smile. I feel so fortunate that I've been able to keep in touch these years since Gerry's passing.

My love and prayers are with your family, on learning of the death of my friend Gerry. Gerry was one of the first people I knew in the Residential Care Industry when I became a member of the Association that he founded. I always admired Gerry's dedication to Residential Care , the residents at Green Lodge, and to his family.
