She married Martin Meggait in 1952 in Armstrong, BC, and has lived there ever since. They live on a family farm that has hosted many Boy Scout and Girl Guide camps, church events, and school outings.
Gerry has spent a lifetime caring for people. She and Martin had four children, one of them (Billy) died of leukemia in 1963. This only intensified her desire to help others - family and people within her area of influence. Gerry's main community involvement has been in the church, Scouting (at the boy level and as an adult trainer), seniors, and for twenty six years has held various positions in an association for persons with developmental disabilities - Board Chair, Manager of Programming/Training, and honorary member of the society, as well as instructing at the local community college. Although this background has been valuable, she writes as a daughter and not as an expert.
Gerry's desire is to futher help people through the publication of this book.view less
