Our thoughts and prayers are with your family Mike. I didn't know him, but seeing the reflection on life that he cast in you and your boys I know he must have been a great man. Goodspeed.

With a history like Gerald had you have to just be happy all that he experienced and LIVED. We should all be so lucky to live a full life like what is described of Gerald's. That, is a life to be celebrated.
