It was such pleasure to take care of your dad for the last couple of years. Whenever someone would see a staff member or a resident with a mini coke and Milano cookies, everyone knew it was from Mr. Gerry 🥰 He always made sure we all had our snacks from him. He enjoyed his late nights sitting outside with his friends having great conversation. He became family to everyone at Avanti. He will be truly missed 💔

Take care
Sebrina

Uncle Jerry was always my favorite uncle and I feel so lucky to have had him in my life. Some of my best memories are of beach houses in Pensacola every summer - those times meant everything to me. After highschool, he opened his home to me while I figured out my next steps in life. That's just who he was - if he could help you, he would, without hesitation. I will miss him deeply, but I carry so many wonderful memories with me and I'm grateful for every one of them.
