So sad to hear about Gerry’s passing and my sincere condolences to John, Paul and Mary. Spoke to Gerry after Christmas and sounded in great form -back playing one night a week in a Santa Fe hotel. What a shock to hear the sad news. Gerry comes from a great array of Castlebar string musicians including Brendan O Regan, Frank Kilkelly and Brendan Fahy….top class players.
