It was with great sadness I learnt of Fr Gerry’s passing, knew years ago as a young teen when I served Mass with him in St Philomena’s church, Palmerstown! Met him many times in the intervening years. He never forgot! Cáoilte Christie!

Very sorry to hear of the death of Fr.Gerry. A lovely gentle kind priest. I first met him before my heart surgery in 2003 and again in May 2017 when he blessed me and re-assured me I would be fine. I attended his mass on many occasions. RIP
