Vicky I am so sorry and can only imagine your overwhelming grief in the loss of your child. Whatever happened, it was way too soon, but you know that God only takes the very best and we are not to ask why. I feel like I watched Gerry grow up by working with you for so many years. It seems like only yesterday. Please take care of yourself and family and know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers.

My heartfelt condolences to the Thompson family. Gerry was a dear friend whose smile and sense of humor won't soon be forgotten. I had the privilege of meeting Gerry air racing. Our friendship grew and time was spent hunting and having fun any time the opportunity arose. I will miss Gerry dearly and keep his entire family in my thoughts and prayers.

I am so sorry for your loss. I have known Gerry since 2002. I have been working on PT6 engines since 1969. I worked for an airline and have known many folks in this field. Gerry was one of the most knowledgeable PT6 engine experts that I have ever ran across. We will surely miss him, not only as a PT6 expert, but as a very fine individual. Please accept our condolences.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't even imagine the emptiness you are feeling. I never met Gerry but I visit CrestPark almost daily to visit my mother. Susan's beautiful smile is there to greet me when I enter. We've gotten to be really close and what causes her pain saddens me tremendously. Gerry had to be a wonderful man to have chosen her. I'll keep all of you in my prayers

I didn't know Gerry very well. Saw him several times when his twin boys and my granddaughter had school activities together. I know there will just be a terrible void in the lives of those close to him and it will take a very very long time to fill it if ever. God bless you all.
