Over the years, Gerry became an important part of our family. Gerry never failed to ask how my wife and daughter were doing and I always found a reason to want to speak with, or see, Gerry. To me Gerry was one of my best friends. At times he also was an older brother that I never had, and the father that I wished I had. His laughter was contagious, and he always found a way to relate a story from him life to what was happening at the time. I had the pleasure of traveling with Gerry to Malaysia, Trinidad & Tobago, and Suriname. As difficult as the travel conditions were sometimes, Gerry pushed through with a smile on his face and enough jokes to keep everyone happy. Gerry loved his family and couldn’t speak enough about how proud he was of his children and how much he cherished his grandchildren. I always looked forward to coming up to London to see Gerry. I knew it was going to be a fun trip even before I left home and I knew I would return home with new stories about Gerry. Rest in Peach my dear friend.
