This is very sad news and a great loss. I'm sure that those of us who were lucky enough to have known him will have great memories. As well as a friend through the club Jerry alo became a close family friend. We will miss you Gerry.

Dear Adrian
I spent hours and hours with Gerry... the slow monday 10 miler...
the saturday long ones.. and some of my happiest memories of summer thursday evenings over the moors with him..
verbal diarrhea from both of us. Fond memories and if we can give others those.. then we have done something..
Colin Reiners

I'm really sad about that, Adrian
I saw him a few weeks ago walking his dogs. Looked as fit as ever.
The banter in the Nab Wood changing room 20 years ago between him and young runners such as Ian Holmes and Andy Peace was brilliant. A great character.
I'll be at the funeral.
Thanks for letting me know.
Stuart
