Dear Caryne: My sympathy goes out to you at this difficult time for you and your family. It was always a pleasure to see Gerry around town. It was obvious that he loved the Lord by the way he conducted his life and his cheerful manners. He was a well respected man in this area. I also fondly remember you at Metro. You were a very fine lady who always made me smile and feel good about life.May the Lord comfort and bless you and your family at this difficult time in your life. Just be thankful that you will meet again as the Lord has promised!

First of all, I'm so so sorry for your loss. It's hard to put into words how great of a guy Gerry was so I will leave this picture here to help... He gave this to me one day, and although he may not have known at the time, I had been dealing with severe anxiety, self-loathing and depression. This card was and still is a wonderful gesture and reminds me to stay true to my path in life. Along with this, he always welcomed and greeted me with a smile and it's the little things like that, and this card that mean the world. I will miss seeing Gerry's face at Asbury, may he rest in eternity. - Sam Cowie

To Caryne and your family with deepest sympathy. You were our neighbours when we first returned to Perth and we were privileged to have had you and Gerry as part of our community since. Gerry was a true gentleman and was so much a part of the services for many of our departed friends. It is so unfortunate that we were unable to attend a service to celebrate Gerry.

To my little sister Caryne, and Tony, Marsha, Ethan, Johnathan and Patrick. We’ve all lost an unforgettable person with the loss of Gerry. We know that he will certainly be remembered by all that had ever met him. How can we as a family ever forget the many get togethers over dinner where we shared many stories and enjoyed the sumptuous meals in your home. We also heard many times of the pride he showed in his family …he was so proud of the kids. Gerry came into our lives 54 years ago and we were blessed that this happened. We will miss him every day…rest in peace Gerry. Caryne, we know the memories nurtured over the years will sustain you in the days to come.

The Bible scripture says it all about his battle with cancer as he certainly was able to extend his life as long as he could with a positive attitude. Sympathies as well to the rest of of your family.

Please accept my deepest sympathies for all the McEwen Family in their loss. Gerry was a kind and caring individual who went out of his way to help others in need. He was extremely kind to my Brother Gary while he was recouperating from a leg injury a few years back as well as being a pillar of support for Gary when he was terminally ill in hospital. He will be missed by many, but remembered by even more. Rest in Peace Gerry.

Over the years, we shared many laughs over the antics of Terry and Gerrys younger days. We were very blessed to enjoy such a long and enduring friendship. My prayers are with you Caryne, Tony, Marsha and families. We were always entertained with grandkid stories when we visited. Such a fine example of a loving family.

It was my good fortune to have met Gerry through the business he ran what is now many years ago. He was in my opinion, an amazing person. His work ethics, his honesty, his integrity and his thoughtfulness for others will always be remembered. This world is a lesser place without Gerry in it. I am deeply saddened at hearing of his passing and wish to pass on my sincere condolences to all family members.

I'm so sorry to hear of Gerry's passing. I first met him when he worked at the court house and I at the police station. He was such a nice man. I later got to know him at Blair & Sons. I was there today and realized he won't ever greet me again. He will be thoroughly missed. Thank you for all your work Gerry, rest easy now in God's care.

Gerry was such a comforting presence at Blair & Sons. I will never forget his kindness on the occasions of losing my husband Bob (2018) my father-in-law Gray Palmer (2019) and my very special aunt last week. My last memory of Gerry was a special conversation & comforting words about losing my 2nd Mom, Win Oakes. Gerry was a true gentleman, ever respective & generous in thought, words & deeds. I’m sure Gerry will continue to give his personal caring touch to new souls in his rightful heavenly place .Thank you for touching so many lives in such a caring, positive manner. He was one of the angels that walked among us. God’s blessing & comfort to all of your family.
