They preceded him in death. Gerald married his sweetheart, Marlene Craig, on Oct. 11, 1969. She preceded him in death on May 31, 2017.

He also has three great-grandchildren, Vanessa Zimmerle, Yuna Craig and Ben Craig. He loved fishing, hunting, spending time with his grandkids and great-grandkids, and he loved watching old movies from back in the day. He sure will be missed by lots, the family said. We love u grandpa! Visitation will be from 4 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 1, until the 7 p.m. service at the Church of God Worship Center in Bourbonnais.
