My condolences to Cindy and family on the passing of Gerry or as we called him here at the store: "The Finisher". He was a great customer and friend and I will miss his smiling face and silly jokes every morning. He was always talking about his family and his love of heading to the trailer to relax and have a whiskey or 2. Gerry will be missed by many.

Cindy, Sean, Ryan, and families,
We met Gerry when he did renovations on our stairs. He did an amazing job and he quickly became a good friend to my late husband and I. In the last few weeks of Bobs life he could always make him laugh. He had a heart of gold and will be greatly missed by our family.

Gerry enjoyed life and loved to laugh. As a very talented carpenter his services

loved meeting new people. He will certainly be missed by so many.

Dear Cindy and Family. We were shocked to hear about the passing of Gerry. Summers will never be the same now, without his joyful sense of humour. He had a smile that opened up everyone's heart. Gerry was very down to earth and approachable. We will miss him very much.
When we think of Gerry, we think of a phrase he used often, and that was "Living the Dream". He did live the dream with his soul mate by his side, unfortunately, it wasn't long enough.
Our condolences go out to you, and we hope that as time goes by, the pain in your heart will lessen. Hugs to you all.
Maureen and Chris

To all of Gerry's beloved family. Shocked...saddened, don't begin to the explain the feeling of this community of the sudden loss of such a talented, funny and just all round great guy. I will miss his smile when he walked in the store for a coffee and the laughs we had before he walked back out the door. His talent was second to none and will be such a great loss in the community. He left his mark everywhere and that is a gift for all. Yes his, "Livin' the Dream" will be not be forgotten when asked how he was doing. You are all in our thoughts and many prayers for strength and healing today, tomorrow and all the difficult days ahead. Rest in Peace Gerry You will be missed.
