It is with great sadness that we heard the sad passing of our cousin Gerard. We extend our sincere sympathy to his wife Katherine and family, also to his brother Fr. Eugene and all the extended Sullivan families. I leaba imeasc na naomh go raibh a anam uasal.

Uncle Gerry, I know you are at long last in Gerard's tender and loving embrace. I'm really going to miss the wonderful chats we had in the salty Cape Cod breeze, your jolly laugh, "lousy" jokes, (to quote a Hosie-ism, if anyone would let you get a word in "edge-wise!") Mostly I will miss your courage and stoicism in times of adversity, and your ability to give strength and comfort to others during difficult times. Uncle Gerry always asked me about all my brothers and sisters and all my children (by name, no less!! No small feat with my family!) I've frankly never known a more loving family man. He adored Katherine and all his children and grandchildren and extended family. I'll miss him along with all the Hosie men and Uncle Gene, cheering on the Hosie/Sullivan women while we cleaned the dishes from one of Katherine's many fabulous Thanksgiving or Easter feasts while they shouted out their dessert orders! Uncle Gerry showed me only love and encouragement, and he NEVER judged me, or anyone for that matter. I think you and I had a deep understanding of one another in many ways. You will be dearly missed by so very many. Rest in peace, sweet Uncle Gerry. Peggy
