Not sure what to say?

We had the most beautiful life celebration and memorial for my dad Sunday . He and I thank all those that attended and those that where there in spirit. We where humbled by the amount of people and moved to tears by their words and love . He would want me to tell you all that he loves you all and to "enjoy yourself... It's later than you think " . Rest in peace and our never ending love you my dearest friend and father . I love you forever .

Deepest Sympathy.

Sympathy on your loss.
Gerry & Denny Setele

I can imagine that with Gerry's presence heaven has become an even happier place and that he and cousin Rick are together rapping about all the good times they had on earth.

I was shocked and saddened to learn of Gerry's passing. I was out of the country; otherwise, I would have left a message sooner. Everything I remember about Gerry when we were kids was good: he was funny, happy, quick witted, and provided so much entertainment for all three of us cousins. My prayers are with you, Auntie Rose, Bonnie, Eric and Valerie. I'm sure he is smiling down at all of you and his 4 granddaughters and will watch over you from above.

Bonnie, Know that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. Larry & Marilyn Reichert

You are in our thoughts and prayers!

Gerry was a wild and crazy kind of guy, who you always knew had a funny story to spin. We worked together for years and he knew how to put a spark in a gloomy day. He had an infectious laugh that would light up the dealership. Everybody knew and liked Gerry. He was the epitome of cool and I doubt he ever had an enemy. My sympathies to everyone in the family and hope I meet up with my old friend on the other side. I think he owes me a beer! Ray

I have the pleasure of being Hope and Eric's neighbor and got to know Gerry and Bonnie through many neighborhood and holiday get togethers and trips to Kalahari. Gerry was always the life of the party. He was one of a kind. To know him was to love him and he was unforgettable. His relationship with children was amazing. We all miss you so much Papa G! Our prayers are with the entire Factor family during their incredible time of grief.
