Sharon Brownrigg lit a candle

“I am sending a messages of condolence from the Brownriggs that were lucky enough to know Gerry when he was young and bratty. Absolutely loved going to the Pilon’s house on evenings and weekends and word sparring with Gerry and Angie. They were both so bright and funny and fit in so well with Uncle Elmer’s friends; that was the little character I knew. Much sympathy and many prayers to Gerry’s family. (I think I can still hear him yelling as he runs across the fields behind the old house.)”

Jonathan Hughes wrote a sympathy message

“My first intern architectural job right out of school was through Gerry and what was then, Salter Farrow Pilon Architects. Gerry was always a gentleman, and I am forever in his debt for mentoring me through those first few years. It was very shocking to hear this news, and I wish his family and his colleagues at Salter Pilon Architects my heartfelt condolences - what a loss...”

“When I taught Museum Management at Georgian College, I shared a photo of Sonic Coalition from the Battle of the Bands with my students, as each band member was such a terrific supporter of the gallery. Front and centre was lead singer and rock star Gerry, our beloved Board President. - Carolyn Bell Farrell, a fan and past Executive Director of the MacLaren Art Centre”

Amanda Preston wrote a sympathy message

“The man, the myth the legend; my worlds mentor. There are no words profound enough. Gerry was my ultimate inspiration, motivation and guide post to the world I know of design. I wouldn't be where I am today without his guidance. He always pushed me to do my best, never giving an inclination that it was a job well done. Until that day. The day he called to say he was "PROUD" of me. Those words are forever ingrained in my heart. You're so missed Ger. I promise to make you proud. xo Kiddo-Mama”

Brian Rudy wrote a sympathy message

“I studied architecture with Gerry way back in the last millennium, and my most vivid memory of him is when we played in a band together for one gig at the term end architecture party at Kitchener’s Walter Terrace Hotel. It was a performance that made me forever want to be a rock star. Instead, I became an architect. Gerry was such a fun guy, and will forever be missed.”
