I met Gerry when I was working and living at a backpackers in Perth. This is a picture of him on his favourite couch. We shared lots of laughs and I could almost always find him here - usually drinking his favourite drink, Passion Pop.

Sadly he passed away after being in an accident in the South Hedland area. You can read the news article about what happened here.

The Kevin Bell Repatration Trust returned Gerry to Ireland. Claddagh, who are based in Perth, provided a tremendous amount of support to his family members and friends.

The With Love and Laughs Comedy Gala is in loving memory of Gerry. We miss you xx
