the twinkle in his eye, a ready smile and tease…that’s what I remember and I’m only an in-law. Glad I got to know this man a little, even though it’s been quite a while since we crossed paths. Now our girls are crossing paths. Walter and I send our hugs, Helen and girls. Asking for God’s comfort and keeping. gloria

Relation: I knew Helen and the girls at MEI.
Helen, praying with you at Moms in Touch at MEI, way back when, had a positive impact on me. Hearing your testimony and seeing it lived out then has been inspiring all these years. May you feel God’s peace as you miss Gerard’s presence here but rejoice knowing he is with our Saviour.

I was sorry to hear of your loss Helen. Sorry too, that Gerards passing took an extra month to the day of Ian’s passing. I’m doing very well considering my loss so recently too. All the best Helen & kids. Tish

We always enjoyed talking with Gerard. He was an interesting guy. We enjoyed hearing more about Gerry’s life at the memorial service. Also was good to hear Kim & Aileen’s memories of their dad.
Just want to let you know we’re thinking of you, and praying that God will give you strength as you & your family carry on ‘life’ with out your husband/father/grandfather.
With love,
Art & Doreen
