In his spare time, Gerald enjoyed playing racquetball, boating, and bass fishing as often as he could. He was extremely health conscious, and never stopped working out.

Gerald treated his kids’ friends as if they were his own. He was a volunteer for Big Brothers/ Big Sisters, and supported several agencies that assisted underprivileged kids.
