Gerry enjoyed a 54-year-long career for McNamara Marine Construction, eventually becoming Vice President. Decades were spent in the Maritimes building bridges, causeways and docks. Gerry loved time spent near the water whether working or simply fishing. Gerry’s amazing memory for detail made him a fascinating storyteller.
He was genuine, generous, optimistic, modest, true to his word and loved music, art, nature, his family and all of our pets dearly.
