Valerie, Garry, Jason & Family,
Gerry was a great neighbour & friend, I remember our first days living in the condo, he was the first to welcome us to our new home.
Memories of his whistling in the hallway with a dance step to two. Walking to Carleton Park together & him with his bag of bread crumbs for the birds, it was amazing how they flocked to him as if they were his best friends.
He was certainly one of a kind.
Hold your memories close as I am sure there are many. Our thoughts are with you.
Renee & Doug

Valerie, Sincere condolences in the loss of your beloved Gerry. You were a dedicated wife which I am sure made his journey easier. I will always remember his favourite tunes “pretty women “ and “old time rock and roll “ . His care for the other residents showed through his enthusiasm as he would try to involve them and bring some happiness to them . Gerry was successful at this.

Valerie, it was such a privilege to provide a bit of care for Gerry. As you know, we often sang some old tunes in the dining room and common rooms. His smile lit up the whole place, and made the shift so much more pleasant. I am happy that Gerry is kicking up his heels, fishing, and remembering the words to his favorite songs, but I am saddened for you. May you sense God's comforting spirit as you begin the hard process of grieving for him. Joanne Johnson
