Gerald grew up fishing, hunting, clamming and climbing trees for mistletoe with his brother Mike. Gerald and his brother both worked for Tilly Webb growing up picking watermelons, cantaloupe and assorted vegetables and trapping coons for their pelts. When Gerald and Mike were kids they rode their bikes to go crabbing and brought them home to share with the family. He was a stone and brick mason a master at his trade. Gerald spent many days looking for arrowheads with mike and had a massive collection. He passed doing one of his favorite past times, crabbing, he was a master at that also.
Gerald was a kind caring compassionate man that would give you the shirt of his back. He has done so much with so little for so long that he was qualified to do anything with absolutely nothing. He was the man and when he danced he put on a show. Gerald was loved by many and missed by more, but no one more than his life partner Emma Patterson who loved him dearly.
Emma, Mike and Kim are having a Celebration of his Life on Saturday, July 24, 2021 at the Milford Moose Lodge pavilion, all his friends are invited to come and share stories and a toast starting at 2 p.m. until early evening.
