Condolences
My condolences to the Johnson family. I was very fortunate to have worked worked with Gerry at Nova Chemicals. I always enjoyed having a chat with him at the firehall when we were on shift. He was a great mentor to all of those he trained in fire and safety. Gerry was great person who will always be remembered. May he rest in peace.

My sincere condolences to Terri and the Johnson family on Gerry's passing. Gerry was our Shifts Fire and Safety Co-ordinator on our Crew at Nova Corunna Site Petrochemicals for years. Over the years , he mentored us in the art of fire fighting in an industrial workplace. VERY good at what he did. More so, Gerry was a great person, respected, funny and always willing to help when needed. Again, sorry for your loss.
