Born October 21, 1970 in a family of 7 children, Gerod was a life-long Staten Islander who spent much of his outdoor time in and around the thoroughfares and waters of the Island. Gerod was known for his outlandish sense of humor and quick wit. He was an avid fisherman and boater, and enjoyed many other pursuits including island vacations, hand-made art and woodworking, bowling, golf, and attending concerts and parties. He will be remembered for his infectious smile, his loyalty to friends and family, his love of cooking and wine, of pigs, fish and frogs, and his ability to make every gathering feel like a celebration. Gerod was also an avid Yankees, Rangers and Jets fan.
