We were connected by e-mail this last year and a half.was KMI 59 also.
cancer was the reason we corresponded.
Gerry had the greatest strength and attitude of anyone I have ever known.
Will always see him as perfect example of courage.
Look in his out going mail the last two years and you will see what I am talking about and what you already know.
A great man with all of you to carry on.
Sincerest best wishes.

Jeff and the Brinker Family. My heart goes out to you during this time of loss. Your dad was a wonderful man. I remember the grade school/high school days when I would visit for a weekend. The memories of the family dinners- the conversations and laughs we had with him. When I came to visit and it was -45 degrees below zero and our conversation of me try to get home in my VW Bug, when we put the pool cube in the basement wall playing around and had to tell him!! Great memories Jeff. May you always have them with you and many more! Our condolences to all- the Murphy Family
