Gerald Cicero Linton

October 6, 2020

It is with profound sadness we announce the sudden passing of Jerry Linton on October 6, 2020. He is survived by his partner Veronica Wells. He leaves behind two sons, Chris (Tanya) and Paul (Amanda). He also leaves behind his five grandchildren, Andrea, Mitchell, Kane, Dexter and Nash. Jerry was a truly kind man with a smile and a hand for anyone that needed it. He a had a passion in life for many adventurous things. His motorcycle kept him busy during the riding months. He regularly participated in the fundraising motorcycle ride “The Ride for Sight” to help with raising money and awareness for blindness research. When his son Paul moved to Australia in 2003, Jerry would find his next adventure. Not only did he visit Paul in 2004, he went back numerous times to seek out the sun and waves of Bondi Beach. True to his adventurous spirit, he spent his 60th birthday skydiving in Australia with Paul. He returned to the other side of the world a few more times to scuba dive and explore The Great Barrier Reef. His trips to Canada’s Wonderland with his grandkids were always filled with smiles and excitement. He will always be remembered for taking them on rides their parents were too scared to attempt. Due to Covid concerns, we will be having a celebration of life when it is possible for everyone to gather together. Donations in his memory to Ride for Sight would be welcome. https://secure.e2rm.com/registrant/FundraisingPage.aspx?registrationID=4818735#&panel1-5
