I'm thinking of you today and am flooded with memories of happier times, your infectious laugh, generous nature, and the many kindnesses you showed me throughout my life (not to mention an afternoon spent teaching me to throw a perfect spiral). You brought laughter into my home as a child and I will always be grateful to you for that and will remember those times with great fondness. Thank you and God Bless you, Uncle Gerry, I will pray that you may find peace in heaven. With Love, Laura

Sorry to hear of Gerry's passing, we go back to childhood days some 70 years ago when I hung around with his brother Eddy and got to see Gerry many times during those days.

Sorry to hear of Gerry's death. I was in the Northampton National Guard unit with Gerry and Keith Helyar, Joe Larose, Bob O'Neill and Skip Clayton. We all watched the 1969 moon landing from our barracks at Camp Drum, NY
