Annalise and family...my condolences on your loss...My family has many good remembrances of your family and Mr. Gerdes...Deloras (Flecky) Anderson

The last thing I remember Charlie saying to me was Richie is in heaven. Charlie, I know you will find each other there. Living next door to the Gerdes,s was more like family than neighbors, Lisa and kids, our thoughts and prayers are with you. Love, Arlene, Jeff and Neal.

I've known Charlie since ECI days; both retired after 32 yrs of service; my son on Azalea teams, and it seems I just had lunch w/him not too long ago at the monthly(Wed) ECI/CMD luncheons.
He was such a great guy!
May he rest in peace!
Sincere condolences to the families.

As so many of us were connected through the love of Catholic schools, The Burrows knew many of the Gerdes kids and were always impressed by their citizenship and the general way they carried themselves. As a parent I now know where that comes from originally. Charles had much to be proud of and we will all miss him! Say Hi to Mom Charles!

So sorry to see the death notice on Charlie.My sincere condolences to you Lisa and the children. I can remember the many happy times our families spent together when we had those picnics at Ft. DeSoto. Mt prayers are with you all.

Our deepest sympathy to the Gerdes family at the loss of your beloved husband, father and grandfather. He will forever be in our hearts. Love from Marilyn and Norm
