Obituary for Gerald Joseph Vincent

Gerald Joseph  Vincent
Vincent, Gerald Joseph
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our dear Father and Pop, Gerald Joseph Vincent. Gerald, better known as Gerry, passed peacefully at the Perth hospital on Monday May 2nd, 2016. Gerry was born on September 14, 1942 and was special son to Leo and Pearl Kerr and special brother to Linda Williams and Dorothy (Rick) Oakes. He was the cherished uncle and father figure to Keith MacDonald (Cathy Crawford). Always a man to be outdoors, Gerry was an exceptional gardener and enjoyed fishing, hunting and walks in the bush on his property. In his later years, he developed a love for golf and enjoyed many a summer day on the course. Many will miss his unique sense of humour and his love of having a good laugh. There was never a dull moment when Gerry was around. A drywaller for 30 plus years, he was well known for his drywall business and took great pride in his work. Predeceased by his loving wife Irene Marjorie, Gerald leaves behind what he considered his greatest accomplishment and source of pride, his daughters Rhonda (Wayne McCullough) and Kathy (Ivan VanAlstine), son Joe (Wendy Donleavy) as well as his eight grandchildren Matt McCullough, Kiefer, Shanda, Keagan, Jesse, Austin, Chloe and Joshua Vincent. Dear Pop, "Though our hearts are deeply saddened at this time, we will forever take comfort in knowing that we had THE BEST. We love You." The family would like to thank Dr Kruzilniki and the nurses and staff at the Perth Hospital for the excellent care they provided as well as their patience with the family in the final days. Gerald spoke highly of you all. Family and friends are invited to attend a Celebration of Life for Gerald on Sunday, May 15, 2016 from 2:00 P.M. to 6:00P.M. at the Stanleyville Hall. Those wishing are asked to consider memorial donations to the Great War Memorial Hospital Foundation.
