July 9, 2024 at 10:00 amOur heartfelt condolences to the family and the Bose friend community.
Gerry was synominous with helping where help was needed, and always with a smile.
Gerry was one of the most reliable assistants I have ever had.
She had “class”, and in spite of her age, was willing to learn about the use of computers and new technology. She was very proactive in her work, and nothing was too small or too big for her.
Her work ethic was an example for everybody.
Gerry was a joy to work with and she will live on as a dear friend in my memory.
I wish the family the strength to overcome their tremendous loss.
