Note to Gerry's Wife

June 1, 2019

Dear Arlene and Family,

Those listed below are Gerry’s Mendel friends who specifically asked that their condolences be expressed to you. Many of them enjoyed spending time with him at the annual golf outing and other events. Others had not seen Gerry in a long time but cherished his friendship. I know they all agree that Gerry was a True Mendel Gentleman. 

Rich Kaffka Frank Kruse Tom Baker Joe Munoz Greg Morin Mike Anthony John Ruzich 

Chuck Hvala Pat Reilley Jack Hill John Farris Jim Hilburger Bill Johnson

Cecil Rinderer Tom DeBenedetti Glenn Gavin Mike Dreznes Ray Garza John Lotito Bill O’Malley

There are others who have already preceded Gerry in life: Stan Sarbieski, Tom Monico, Dan McCann and Tom Ormsby.

In the Serbian Orthodox Church, the phrase used for those who have passed is “Memory Eternal.” Rest assured that Gerry will be eternally remembered by all of us.
