Gerardo was born and raised in Bisbee. He was the second youngest of eight children. He is survived by his mother Encarnacio S. Vasquez and siblings Cristobal, Juan, Elias, Alberto, Alma, Estela, Sofia and an extensive number of nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews.

​

Gerardo was a very helpful and caring individual. Always bringing home others to feed and care for them. His biggest priority was his mother always making sure she was well taken care of. Gerardo was our children’s favorite uncle whom he enjoyed sharing his love for ice cream with. His love for working on cars and listening to loud music is a memory of him that we all share and ponder.

​

We are grateful to say that Gerardo was able to give the gift of life to three other people with the loss of his own in the way of organ donations.

​

We will miss you so much and you will always have a special place in our hearts. Thank you for the good memories that we were able to share in such a short time. We love you Gerardo!!
