He is survived by his wife Ann (Zuccari) Conroy, son Michael (Wendy) Conroy, daughter Christina (Christopher) Farrell and his Grandchildren Zachary Jaggers, Michael Conroy, Allison and Jack Farrell.
Gerard enjoyed detailing his car, fishing with a bamboo pole, parades, a good laugh and a corny joke.
