Condolences & Memories (10 entries)

My condolences to Madeleine & Family, It is with great sadness that I learned of Gerald's passing. I can still recall the spirited lunchtime ping-pong games we had at Vipond. Gerald was the 2nd best player there, but I'm sure that he'd have you believe that he was the best. LOL. Gerald's jokes and quick wit were 2nd to none. Because of that he often made going to work more tolerable. I'm very grateful to have known Gerald. If the true wealth of a man is found in his friendships then Gerald was very wealthy. He'll be missed. - Posted by: John Pogorzelec (Co-worker- (Vipond) late 70's, early 80's) on: Dec 23, 2021

Gerald contacted me a few weeks back to say his goodbyes.. Thank you for that. I am so sorry and wish his family all the hugs in the world. I spent time working with Gerald at Vipond, I had the privilege of travelling to Newfoundland a couple of times with Gerald, whereas the memories we shared on these trips, are cherished and will never be forgotten. We sure did have fun. I always thought of Gerald as a good family man and a good friend. My thoughts and prayers are with Gerald's family. - Posted by: Cory Tremblay (Friend / Co-worker) on: Dec 13, 2021

Gerald and I both worked at MITT. We had many laughs together over the years listening to his jokes at lunch time. You could always count on Gerald for one very funny joke at least once per week. Your friends will miss you at MITT. God Bless you on your eternal. - Posted by: Joe Bettencourt (Friend from MITT) on: Dec 08, 2021

Madeleine and family, I was saddened to hear of Gerald’s passing. I will always remember the great times we had curling together in the Eddystone and St. Rose bonspiels and Saturday morning golf at Tuxedo Golf Course. Gerald was always a gentleman, calm with a fabulous sense of humour! So sorry to hear of his passing at such a young age! - Posted by: Perry Blair (Friend ) on: Dec 04, 2021

I met Gerald when he was working at South Tech. in Drafting. He brought me a student to get experience at my Engineering Firm. We got to know each other and he was always a nice guy! He will be missed. The fellow he brought me for work has been with me for over 20 years. God Bless. - Posted by: michael mark (friend) on: Dec 04, 2021
