Kay, Debbie and Steven..
I am so sorry for your loss. Gerry was so special to me. You all know what a fabulous man he was. He loved you all and his grandchildren more than anything. He love spending time with his family and kibitzing with everybody. He loved life. He would never complain ( to me) and he had my undivided attention for 1 hour every 3-4 months for 25 years. No Iâ??m not his physiologist. Iâ??m his favorite dental hygienist. He was a special man. I am honored to know him and to call him my friend.
My heart is with you during this sad time.
I love you all.

To the Family of Gerry Dicker: As current Senior Vice President of B'nai B'rith International, I had the honor and pleasure of knowing Gerry, when I was President of the Midwest Region of BBI. Although, I didn't work with Gerry I did meet him many times and learned much about him through his longtime co-worker & friend, Celeste Cohn Brown. His love of his wife, children and grandchildren were is life. His commitment and dedication to B'nai B'rith for over 32 years is well known and documented of his love for his fellow man and the Jewish people. On behalf of his many friends and officers of B'nai B'rith, may I extend our personal deep sympathy to his family on the loss of a husband, father and grandfather and an individual who truly can be called a real "mensch".
May his memory be a blessing forever.
