Gerry Wilson

January 17, 1938 - August 5, 2020

Gerry was an incredibly popular figure across the lacrosse community and a great friend to so many at Buckhurst Hill Lacrosse Club and beyond. The epitome of a true gentleman, Gerry will be missed by many. We hope that by pulling together messages of remembrance and celebration, it will go some way to help comfort Jean, Jem and Nigel during these difficult times. These messages will be compiled together and a book of remembrance produced for both the family and for Buckhurst Hill Lacrosse Club, to cherish.

I first met Gerry at Staples Road when I joined the after school Lacrosse club which he ran. I really enjoyed the fast paced nature of the game and I was the inspired by how passionate Gerry was for the sport. He was also a great teacher and very patient with all abilities. I remember he talked me into playing a field Lacrosse game for Bucks youth team and kindly picked me up to take me to the game. After Staples Road, I wouldn't play Lacrosse again until university. On my return from university I played a number of matches for Bucks, it was great to see Gerry again and still supporting the team. I will remember Gerrys passion on the sideline and welcoming personality in the clubhouse. My thoughts are with the whole Wilson family
