“Kevin, Phil, Gerard and Elizabeth and the whole O'Hara family Gerry was my first "Boss" in the industry. I thought he was tough and mean at times but I now realize he really cared and took care of his people the best he could. He gave so many of us a chance when we were just starting out, he will be missed. My condolences Harold Kaplan”
