Gerald Selesko Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Nov. 5, 2012.
Gerry graduated from San Diego High School in 1945.

He was a sweet and kind husband for 44 years to his wife Sheila.

He served in the United States Armed Forces from 1945-1947 in the Aleutian Islands and earned a World War II Victory Medal.

He retired in 1995 from General Dynamics (Convair) after 45 years of service.

His daughter Marcia Lynne Selesko-Cooper lives in La Mesa with her husband Larry, son Dylan and daughter Brianna.

His son Dr. Lawrence D. Selesko lives in Germany with his wife Barbara and son David.

Gerry was a very dedicated family man who brought joy and happiness to all who knew him.

We are especially grateful for his extended family at the Rosegarden Guest Home for the love and care provided to Gerry and his family during his final years of life.

Gerry will live forever in our Hearts!
