Not sure what to say?

Gerry left life much too soon. He was a great industrial artist--by hand and also by computer. His work was amazing.

Gerry was a fantastic graphic artist. He did outstanding work at Revell,Inc. He will be greatly missed by many friends and former co-workers.

I worked with Gerry for about 3 years at Revell, starting almost 20 years ago. I'll always be grateful to him, because by example he taught me a simple yet very valuable life lesson: If you don't know something, ask! Before I met Gerry, I foolishly thought it was some kind of sign of weakness to show ignorance--of a vocabulary word, topic, or whatever--in conversation.

Gerry was a great friend for 35 years and had many amusing and enlightening times with him and his family whom he loved like only a father could.

Gerry, I so admired the way you spoke of your daughters that you loved above all others. As a father of daughters myself, I could always depend on you share your experience and advice. I'm so thankful for that opportunity to learn from you. You cherished being a Father and Grandfather, you really undestood what was most important in this life. I could always count on your ability to make me laugh and I promise to carry those memories with me. Farwell my friend. B

You always said that work interfered with your leisure;
I only wish that you had a lot more time to do the things you loved.
Be at peace

My dear friend..may you rest in peace

We work together for many years, we developed a great friendship, we were meeting in October for lunch or just to catch up. We will miss you

I met Gerald a number of times because I am close friends with his daughter Robin Humbert. Gerald was such a beautiful and special person, he was an amazing father and a kind, loving human who was filled with such a special light. I am brokenhearted for the family he left behind. Much love to Robin, Beth & Heather.
