"I was so sadden to hear the passing of Gerlad. Gerlad was a big part of my life growing up. Seem like every weekend We always started or ended the day at Gerlad and Judy home. But I first met Gerlad when my dad and he was good friends. I first met Gerlad when I was around seven years old. And he was always a part of my life. I allways tried to stay in touch but starting a family of my own I just never got to spend time with Gerlad as much as I like to have. I am so sorry for the family loss.Gerlad will be greatly missed. R.I.P. ROUND MAN YOU WILL BE GREATLY MISSED. Tell dad and mom and sister and my daughter miss them so much love ya"
