It is with heavy hearts that we announce his passing. Born in Halifax, NS, Gerry is the son of Philip Wilson (Helene Berube) and the late Hazel Wilson (Dave Dauphinee). After attending St. Thomas University, Gerry worked as a lawn care specialist, then moved on to offer his expert listening skills to his many patrons at the Chris Rock.
