September 10, 1928 – October 13, 2020

Germain (aka Gerry) Eugene Chartrand, 92 years young, entered the spirit world on Tuesday October 13, 2020 at 9:57pm in Merritt, BC. He was born on September 10, 1928 in Hull Quebec.

He is loved and will be missed by his wife Rose Sheena of 59 years, his ten children: (Roger, Greta, Jeannie, Cathy, Joyce, Janis, Gerry aka Jr. Esther, Diane, and Dorothy aka Tootsie), many grandchildren, great grandchildren, great/great grandchildren, nieces, nephews, siblings and many friends he made along his journey.

He was a faller and bartender for most of his life. He moved and lived in many cities growing up until he settled in Merritt, BC in the early 2000’s where he spent the last of his remaining years. You could often find Gerry dining out or simply having a coffee with friends and family. He sure loved his BINGO and spent a lot of time fishing in the ocean when he retired. If you ever went driving with him, you would know that he loved his country music and loved to sing along with his favorite tunes. Gerry knew his way around the kitchen, he made some of the simplest meals, but they tasted so good. He was easy to get along with and made friends with many because he had the gift of gab.

You will be missed by many because you touched a lot of lives Gerry – safe travels to the spirit world – we all love you.

You may express condolences at Merritt Funeral Chapel.
