So sorry to hear of Gerry's pasting. I have fond memories of Gerry & Kay from basket ball days in Hawera. For me personally, Gerry's quite demure, is just one of his many attributes I still try to emulate. I feel privileged and blessed to have known him. To Kay and family, know you are loved and in our prayers in this time of grieving. Graeme & Margaret Wallis

Although I didn't know Gerry all that well, I know he was a brilliant man and a wonderful father to my great friend Tara. Sending lots of love and sympathy at this time.
