Barry Schafer wrote a sympathy message

“To the family of Harold Gerdes, we didn’t have the honor of knowing Harold very well but we were privileged thru Wayne and Jean Nelson to have met him last winter in Arizona. Our son Bryce Schafer roped out at his ranch south of Maricopa last February. Such a gentlemen and so friendly. Our deepest sympathies and prayers go with all of you in the loss of this wonderful man. Barry and Nancy Schafer (Sentinel Butte ND)”
