Gerard was the glue that kept his brother Kerry and I together when we were teenagers. They are both in Heaven. I miss them daily and hope they forever rest in peace.

To the Avant family,
I am so very sorry for the loss of your loved one. Be assured that God feel your pain because he love and cares for you. May you trust in God at all times and pour out your heart before him. God is a refuge for you. He will hear your cry for help and give you comfort. (Psalms 61:1). Your family and friends have my deepest condolences.
