He married his wife of 59 years, Barbara on August 4, 1962 and joined the United States Army where he served for three years.

Gerald enjoyed the outdoors, fishing and mowing the lawn. He was an avid St. Louis Cardinals fan who tried to watch every game he could on TV and would occasionally catch a game down at Busch Stadium. Gerald spent a lot of time on athletic fields or courts over the years with his family. Whether he was coaching or spectating, his favorite place to be was watching his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren play sports. In his younger years he played baseball, slow and fast pitch softball, bowling and horseshoes. He loved taking care of his animals; llamas, cats, peacocks and various other animals. Gerald was a devoted family man, who put a smile on everyone’s face. Gerald was dearly loved and will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
