I am saddened to learn of Gerald“s passing. He will be missed by all those who knew him. I worked with Gerald at the Atlanta VA Medical Center for many years before retirement. Not a better friend. Old be found. He was kind and considerate and he loved his family above all. My prayers are with his wife and extended family. May he rest in peace.
