Not sure what to say?

I will always remember Gerald as wild and crazy in our younger days, and still lot of fun after we all grew up and got our rough edges smoothed out. Always a great musician and friend. He will be missed, but the love is still here.

Thanks for letting me share your mic rest in peace Dr. Graves

I remember listening to you play at King Author's? I think. That was another time that your band got the gig instead of my band...which was not rare...I truly enjoyed your music. I am blessed to have heard you play with Pond recently, and I am truly sorry for not accepting the invites you sent me to the gigs and Halloween parties.
Rest in Peace Gerald, may Perpetual Light shine upon you, and may God forever bless you.

Lots of great and fun memories of an awesome musician and friend from back in the day. Gerald and Steve are again
playing music together. RIP. Our thoughts, prayers and God's healing be with all the family and friends. From the Tannehill families.

I have no doubt I will see him again at the...

Thanks for the memories

RIP Gerald, you will be missed...Love to Deb and all of Gerald's family, All our Best Kevin and Debbie Brown
