Condolence From: Claudia (Jimenez) Dugan
Condolence: I have many happy memories of Gerald and he and Ron riding go-carts with Mike and Dani as kids. Donna and I spent time at the house with Betsy growing up as she liked having "girls" around. Gerald always seem to know when I was back in Iowa visiting Judy and stopped by to say "Hi". He had a ready smile and easy laugh and will be missed by not only his immediate family, but by all the cousins. Rest easy, my friend.

Condolence: "Rat" .... I think I probably called you by your CB name more than your first name for the entire time I knew you! I always appreciated how nicely you treated me when I was driving one of those LOVELY Sioux City Motor trucks, and how you trusted me to drive your Ford if you were tired and needed a nap! :) RIP ...you're gonna be missed! Keep the shiny side up and the greasy side down. :) Love ya, Friend .. "Lady Skunk"

Condolence: So sad to hear about Geralds's passing. He was such a special person and a great guy. First met him back in the day but did run into him once and awhile throughout the years and always enjoyed visiting with him. Our friend Claudia kept me in the loop about what was going on with him. RIP Gerald, you were loved by all.

Condolence: I can't believe how much time I've spent missing Gerald since his passing. Always positive and smiling around me and so sharing with news of family. Don't tell Mike Wells, but he even offered ice cream off the truck once! He already is missed.

Condolence From: Tim and Ann Tone
Condolence: Every couple weeks we got a call from Gerald as he trucked across the country. When he was nearby he would stop to visit whether we were in Montana or Texas. It was always great to pick up the phone and hear "Hey man, what's happenin'?" Then later we would see that smile as he stepped out of his truck for a visit. We just saw him recently in Montana and he was able to spend some extra time visiting with us. We knew him all his life and he is a great guy! We will really miss answering the phone, hearing the sounds of the road and then "Hey man..."
