I've had time to prepare myself for this, but no one really can be prepared for such a loss.  I would like to share with you my memories and tribute to my father, Wendlin Gerk.  Preparing the eulogy and video was incredibly difficult and beautiful all at the same time.  I think I even got closer to my dad and understand him even better now.  The whole process was supporting me through grief.  I cried everyday while creating something beautiful to share.  Now I can hold my heart and celebrate Wendlin and his life.  Thank you to all my family and friends that have reached out.  I appreciate all the gestures, but at this time I'm basking in solitude. xo
