Gerald's obituary

On Monday, September 2, 2019 Navy veteran and loving father Gerald "Gerry" Farrell, Jr. was surrounded by family and friends in Indianapolis, Indiana when he went to be with the Lord at the age of 77.

Gerry grew up in Illinois before joining the Navy, moving to Texas, and finally settling in Indianapolis. Gerry was a huge history buff with a love of John Grisham books . Gerry loved serving the Lord and others as a member of St. John's Episcopal, Speedway and an organ-tissue donor. He loved his family and friends deeply and truly. Many fondly remember he and his wife, Suzie, as providing a home for the strays - animals and kids.

Gerry was preceded in death by his loving wife of more than 35 years, Susanna "Suzie" Farrell. He is survived by sisters: Barbara Peterson, Alice (Rich) Farrell, and Mary Clare (Jack) Bucher; loving children Virginia "Ginny" (Steve) Jones, Christine "Chrissy" (Chris) Wagner, Scott (Erin) Farrell, and Colleen (Kyle) O'Brien; grandchildren: Kathryn (Will), Eric, Kyle, CJ, and Saoirse; and great-grandchildren: Alex, Ethan, Lily, Harley & Liam.

Gerry will be remembered as a kind and loving man, father, and grandfather. He will be remembered for his cheesy jokes, his big heart, and his Facebook comments.
