Not sure what to say?

I will always treasure the little painting Jerry gave me when he lived in Del Ray. I loved hearing him and the Irish Breakfast Band practice in Tom's backyard, behind my fence. What a friendly and talented fellow. He is missed.

Gerry was also a superb guitarist and had a folk group called the "Loblollies." He could play just about anything beautifully. He also showed us a house that he had decorated -- again he did superb design work with 3-D illusions and magnificent artistry. Truly a renaissance man! I will miss singing with him. Sending love to all who knew this remarkable man.

Single Memorial Tree

We had many good laughs together and shared love of folk music. He spoke fondly of his children and grandchildren often and was so proud of their individual talents and abilities, and how attractive they all are. May they cherish memories of his love for them and his humor.

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.
