So sorry Jackie to read about Gerry's death. I am Douglas' mother, he would come over to play with you, when you lived at Point Pleasant in St. Cloud, across from Lorraine and Romie Blissenbach.and your mom, Esther, would give him cookies and had a nickname for Doug, but I can't remember.
Hope you are doing well, it said your Dad Died after a short illness. Pneumonia, is one of the deaths in the elderly
