    My condolence to the Green family for your loss. Gerry was much older than me, but, I do remember a little bit about him. The Green clan was a bunch of people who could really have a good time. I will always remember my many trips ” to the farm”. Especially the day Carmen kicked the outhouse door open while I was “sitting”…..she may even have taken the Monkey Wards catalog before I could use it! My parents Jim and Jean thought a great deal of the Greens. So sorry for your loss, but, very thankful for all the memories. In fact, I’m drinking a Pepsi in Ginny’s honor at this time. Jerry Flack
