Gerald was united in marriage to Donna DeYoung on September 23, 2007, she survives of the home.  Also surviving are his children:  Ethan Meyr of Moberly, MO, Emilie Meyr of Guilford, CT, and Benjamin Meyr (Crystal) of Jefferson City, MO, and two grandchildren.  Gerald was preceded in death by his parents. The family would ask in lieu of flowers for donations to be made to the Zion Lutheran Church of Moberly, Missouri, or Ducks Unlimited for habitat conservation in honor of Gerald Meyr. Words of comfort and support were shared with the family at a visitation at the Zion Lutheran Church followed by funeral services. Committal prayer and private interment will take place at a later date.
