Hi Gerry. This is Marylee Boyer. I worked with you years ago at Williston Memorial Hospital. I am so sorry to read about your loss. I send my heartfelt condolences and prayers to you and your family.

So many memories...one of my favorites is our trip to San Francisco. As we were walking along, some guy made the comment to Frank (Beau to me) and Joe "you two look like brothers". Beau thought he said " you two buzzards." We laughed so hard I had to go back for a wardrobe change. Then there's the Alaskan Cruise. It was extremely windy(90 miles per hour) but Beau went out on the bow and pretended to be Leonardo DiCaprio. The deck was promptly closed with hazard tape,
The irony to loving deeply is the deep pain in the loss. I wouldn't change a moment.
I love you, Beau. See you again someday!
Your sister-in-law and in Christ, Barbara

I have been fortunate in my life to know this family for over 25 years. The way, I believe, to reflect upon what type of person that you had become, is not necessarily what you accomplished in your life, but what you have left behind to continue your lessons of good values, good morals and impeccable faith in your children to pass these values along to their own families. Your two daughters, Ann Marie & Christia, that I consider a part of my own family, are examples of every good quality that you and your bride could have passed along. I thank you for that! They make everyone's life that they touch, a better life indeed. May you rest in peace my friend and continue to watch over us. We will strive to do our part to make the world a little better, just like you lived yours.

Michael, AnnMarie and Christa, please be comforted in the fact that your Dad was a beautiful and caring person who always saw the best in people. As kids we were always fighting and I remember when I saved all my money for an Elvis Presley album and he melted it into a vase for Mom. I hated and loved him at the same time. So many memories. My heart is so heavy, but I know he is with GOD in heaven as he should be. Love, Jeri
