Ryerse, Gerald (Gerry)

It is with broken hearts we announce the sudden passing of Gerry on July 2, 2020. Loved forever by wife, Donna and son, Chris. We celebrated our 50th Wedding Anniversary in June, 2020. He was predeceased by his parents, and Donna’s parents, but has sisters, brothers, in-laws, cousins, nieces and nephews living near us. Gerry was always busy putzing with something once he retired and was respected by the may people he met in everyday life, the people he worked for and with. Thank you to all of those people for the many calls we have received letting us know what a great guy he was. We had all known how friendly and kind he was, but it is nice to hear that from the people he knew. Cremation has been entrusted to Tranquility Burial & Cremation. As Gerry requested, there will be no service. If you would like to express your sympathy, we leave this to you. We feel because the person he was…he would appreciate your doing something kind for someone, smile, tell a joke or play a prank. He would have wanted that, as you all know.
