Our deepest sympathy to all Gerry's family. I remember the day Gerry started working at Gutshall's. We worked together there for four years but remained friends forever. Gerry bought my little red jeep and we spent many hours working on vehicles together. We also shared many meals together. Although we didn't have close contact later in life we did meet periodically and catch up on what was going on in our lives. Gerry was a great guy and friend who will be missed.
