You were a GREAT man and are missed very much. The world is a little less bright without you in it. We miss you already and all of your joking ways. You were one funny guy! But we will see you again one day and share more jokes and laughs together…so be ready!
All our love,
Don and Jean Wahl

Gerry coached my son Richard in baseball. He let me tag along as his assistant for a few years. He always had a special place in his heart for those years he coached, and could astonish you with recalling the names and stories of the kids that played for him.
His grandfather and my great, grandfather, both helped Henry Flagler build the Overseas Railroad to Key West. The many stories we shared will not be forgotten…nor will my friend Gerry!

From a Rocketeer to a great guy. We will miss you but live in our hearts always. May you find peace and comfort without pain or ‘discomfort’. You will be missed. Gods Blessings to all the family.
