Gerald Vidan aka 'tunaman69'

Post by seanfyodorovich »

Jerry's widow asked me to post this here as she said he had a few friends here. He was my best friend.

He passed away on July 3rd at home in his sleep. Cause still unknown but they believe it was heart-related. He just turned 50.

Very sad to hear. Sounds like he was a nice guy.

Thanks, guys. Hopefully whoever it was from here that hiked with him a few times will see this.

I never had much interest in doing a 14er but in his honor I am thinking about doing one.
