Our families thoughts and prayers go out to the whole Elm family. I knew Gerry as a little PE kid and got the pleasure of learning and working with him on my own up on "the hill" many years later. God Speed Ol Boy!

Barbara and Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I know that there are no words that can be said to ease your pain. He was a great man and will be sadly missed by everyone who knew him. I will miss him at bowling where I loved messing with his towel.
