Default Sad news

I met Gerry online in the late 1990s and he taught me a lot about 1930s material-- Later he invited me to his house to see his cards (and took me out to dinner). His 1930s sets were among the finest anywhere. He truly was a gentleman (and a gentle man) who I will always remember with great fondness. I thought of him when I was at the 9-11 memorial this May and I found his son on the list of those lost. I don't think Gerry ever really recovered from that.
