Gerry Giles’s departure signals the conclusion of a protracted and brave struggle with disease. Gerry, a cherished Wanderer member, was appreciated for his great knowledge and eagerness to offer his observations to the group. His presence warmed and befriended everyone around him, therefore changing their lives.
Brigitte, a committed friend and neighbour, was by his side with unflinching support and compassion during the difficult course of his sickness. Her giving nature is shown by her regular care for Gerry and the kindness she treats everyone she comes across. Such unflinching commitment is really admirable and worthy of respect.
Although Gerry leaves a vacuum, his memory will be kept by the wisdom he imparted and the friendships he developed. Regarding Brigitte, her selflessness and loyalty mirror the best criteria of friendship and compassion. With real gratitude, everyone who saw her relentless support salutes and honours her efforts.
