Gerard worked for over twenty years as a truck painter at Janelle Truck Body, as well as, Draper Corporation for as many years. He was very proud of his employment and the help he gave the residents of the Friendly Home of North Smithfield. He supported the residents and joined them in cheering for the New England Patriots as a life long fan.

Gerry also enjoyed the great outdoors and was always active at Rhode Island beaches clamming, trout fishing and camping. He was also an avid hunter and loved to be in the wild creating many fond memories with family and friends.
