I was privileged to be Gerry´s Hairstylist for the past few years. She was like a ray of sunshine and had a great sense of humor. I will miss her so much. After each appointment I would say , with a hug, I love you and she would respond, with that great smile and sparkly blue eyes, I love you more. I love you Gerry, forever.
