I met Gerry in 1952 when I joined the scouts and he was my first Patrol Leader. Whilst in the scouts Bucks (via Gerry)recruited a number of us to play lacrosse. 35 years later I gave up playing but Gerry continued. During my career i scored an amazing number of goals, nearly all of which were a result of Gerry`s incredible skill at passing a lacrosse ball at speed to a marked player. He was a splendid lacrosse player, a very good friend and a true gentleman. He was a good family man and adored Jean. He was a much respected man, and in turn respected all others. There have been very few like Gerry, and I suspect will be a lot fewer in the future.
