    Juanita, Chris and Cathy,
    All things must pass, but not all are missed. Gerry will be! In a world of motley characters, he was one of the ‘good’ guys, positive and friendly, generous in spirit and acts,and always ready and willing to chat, No doubt he is having a good gab right now with the Big Guy upstairs. Our condolences to his family, in the knowledge that he has no doubt left you a great many positive memories.

    Gerry is in our thoughts and prayers.

    Sharon and Gerry Mason

    Dear Nita and Family,

    I am so sorry to hear about Gerry’s passing. I’m not sure if you remember but I am Don Thornton’s daughter, Nancy. I was so sad to see the obituary today. We have so many fabulous family memories that involved going to “Gerry’s Cottage” and you guys would always drop down to visit. Such great times! My thoughts are with you. He will be remembered in the Thornton family.

    Sincerely,
    Nancy

May you have the strength to work through these troubled times. We know you will as that is the person you are. Know that our thoughts and prayers will be with you along the way. Stay strong. Hugs and God Bless. Doreen and Henk

    Dear Nita,
    I was so sorry to hear about Gerry. It was only last week when he called “from the south shore” to talk with Gael. Looking at the video tribute to him I was reminded of our trip to Alaska and what a great time it was. We enjoyed your time with us in Calgary afterwards and have many wonderful memories of that time.
    It is clear from the many tributes to him that he will be missed in and around Liverpool and that both of you are obviously so highly thought of..
    I am sorry I cannot be with you to share in a celebration of Gerry’s life on Thursday, but I will be thinking of you that day and know you will be surrounded by family and friends.
    Take care of yourself, Nita, and again, my sincere sympathy.

    We were very sorry to hear of Gerry’s passing. Grief is a slow and painful ordeal. Share your very dearest memories with each other and remember the man he was. He was always smiling and sharing a joke. Grieving is a very painful thing to go through as we just did that seven months ago and it will take time, or so they tell me, but eventually the pain will ease and that is when you will truly talk about the man he had become. We are so sorry for your loss, may time heal the open wounds.
