Dearest Marilyn, Lisa and Scott,
Extremely sad to hear the news today and so sorry that none of us can be with you tomorrow.
Gerald was a kind, gentle gentleman, with a great sense of humour. I personally remember him very well.
I happen to be spending the day with my Father tomorrow so we shall be together on line for the service.
We wish you long life
And send love

Dear Lisa and Neil,
My deepest condolences on the loss of your beloved father and grandfather of your children.
May you be comforted by all of the fond memories you have and may his memory be an eternal blessing to all who knew and loved him. With kindest regards, Ruth Gold
Lisa and Neil,
I’m sending you and your family all of my love and condolences during this time. Knowing you and the values you hold and inspire in others, he must have been an incredible person. My father turns 89 in a week and my parents also celebrate their 60th this August. Each day is a blessing I don’t take for granted. I know you didn’t either. May his memory be a blessing. Erica
Dear Marilyn, Lisa, Scott, Neil and Betsy,
We are so sad that this day has arrived. We remember meeting Gerry for the first time at the JCC Pre-School c.1999 – and then spending time with him (and all of you) at countless JCC, Rashi, JDRF, CJP and family events. He was warm, loving, brilliant, engaging, inspiring and funny. And such a mensch! We know that his memory will be a blessing and send you our love and sincere condolences.
Faryl and Jon
Dear Lisa and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Your father and grandfather was an incredible man with light in his eyes and love in his heart. May you find comfort among the mourners and from your many friends.
Dear Marilyn,
Any loss any time is sad, but I hope you are comforted knowing that Gerry is no longer suffering and make those who loved him suffer too. P,ease call whenever you are ready to talk. Hope you will join Zoom tomorrow, but we will understand if you cannot! Love you, Joan
I was very saddened to read of Gerry’s death. I have wonderful memories of having participated with Gerry and Marilyn on the March of the Living in 2005.
I am sure that a life of meaningful memories will bring great comfort during this difficult time.
