Gerry, I don't know how on earth you could stand being in there with that bunch of self centered brats. I have to tell you, you really inspired me with your dedication to working out and improving yourself while in the house. YOU ROCK.

Gerry,

As you will find out, things were not as they seem. And it is a shame that BB and company had to have their hand in it as well.

I know, you would want to put all this behind you soon. Cash that check. you EARNED Every red cent and more!

I wish you and your family the best. Stay on the High road Gerry, Your kids you teach, are the ones that will be your legacy!

Take care

Gerry,

What a great game you're playing! I truly admire the way you have managed to keep your head, not blow up at the childish antics of most of the other houseguests. I don't recall hearing you say anything bad about any of them. Wish I had that quality!

Good luck to you and your happy family!

Hi Gerry,

I thought you played a fair game with integrity & I'm sorry you were stuck with that hateful and spoiled bunch. I was impressed with the fact that you didn't go around bad mouthing the other house guests even though you had plenty of ammunition to do so. I'll miss seeing you every morning on the live feeds!

In my eyes you really won the game. I'm sorry that immature HGs were in the house with you and feel bashing people behind their backs is playing the game. I don't, but again I'm over thirty and teach special needs and deal with others bashing them on a daily bases for no reason except they are different and can get feeling hurt easily.

Because of your actions --I love GERRY!!!

Gerry, thanks for representing the decent hard-working Americans out there who just want to do right by their family.

Give 'em hell at the final show... You should demand an apology from every single houseguest who spread lies about you.

Hi Gerry,
Like every other poster in this folder, I was sickened by the way many HGs bashed you behind your back. Please don't subject yourself to the nastiest of the bashers M,his puppet A & D, when you leave the house.
Great job on the weight loss.
You played the game with decency and minimal bashing of others. You endured being ignored and defamed with patience and good humor.
On most BB message boards large numbers of the posters thought the HGs bashing was uncalled for and extremely cruel.
BTW I am a special ed teacher for over 25 yrs and know you have plenty of experience dealing with acting out behaviors....just think of the HG bashers as disturbed cause they are.
Good luck in all you do !
God Bless You,
Mary

Gerry,

Great game! Good luck to you and your family! Keep your smile and your integrity! Please do not get depressed over these people's actions when you get out and find out how they have talked. They have behaved much worse than middle schoolers. I am anxious to see who you vote for in the end!

Gerry I just want to say, I hope the best for you and your family. They seem to be a very nice family from what I have seen. Want you to know that a lot of us who watched the feeds were shocked and upset at the trash that came out of some of the house guests mouths and did not believe any of it. We saw you in the early mornings when all were asleep and knew there was no call for it. CBS should be ashamed for their part in it also. I am only sorry you could not go all the way if as it seems you are going next. I would have liked to see you at least one of the last two. Hang in there and don't let this get to you. You are o.k in my book. Konnie

Gerry - I have been routing for you since day 1. You are the only Houseguest that has conducted yourself with class all the way through. You set a wonderful example for the viewers and have lots & lots of fans out here! Hang in there and best wishes to you and your family!!

Howdy Gerry :)

You did a great job in the game - was hoping you'd make it to the final 2 but from the looks of things I'd say your not going to now.

When you get 'out' and find out about all the things said about you in the house - please realize you have an amazing amount of support out here from all those who see what's really gone on in that house.

I know you'l lbe busy for a while but I'd suggest you download the BB 3 archives here at the tvclubhouse.com website and see just how supportive MOST the posters here were towards you.

Regarding the negativity directed at you from the other house guests most of us watching the feeds know the truth and admire you for not stooping to their level and putting up with it with class.

I wish you all the best in the future - and keep up with the exersize your doing GREAT with that!!

Keep that positive attitude of yours and enjoy the future!

Whitney

If you get to these messages, I want you to know that this board was filled with your supporters. There were many that did not find any amusement in the way you were treated. I hope that you really watch the tapes and see how badly you were talked about and that your final vote will reflect that. You were maturity in a house of immaturity and it showed. Don't let those young immature children get to you. You did a hell of a job.

Sincerely puck1021

Gerry,

Good job on surviving the house. I'm not sure that I could've done it. :)

I wanted to let you know that a lot of BB fans (including me) will miss seeing you in the house. At this point I feel like only you (and Jason) have really tried to play the game while still remaining a kind person. I know that sometimes the game had to be ugly, but it seemed like you always tried to avoid making it worse than necessary. Sometimes I didn't like certain things you did (a deal with Roddy springs to mind ), but I always felt that you had good intentions at heart. You tried not to take things personally, and you kept your cool at all times. It's too bad that the other houseguests weren't able to trust you. You would've made a great ally.

Good luck in the future.

Hi, Gerry,
I'm hoping that you won't have to read this soon, but if so, please know that you have a lot of fans out here in the big wide world. We admire the way you played the game with the least amount of manipulation, lying, back-stabbing, and other assorted techniques practised by the other houseguests. You played with integrity and honour and you can hold your head high.
I'm sorry that you have spent so much time away from your family, and not make it to the end, but you're a winner to all of us who watched you handle the pettiness of the BB house with dignity and tolerance, and your strength in maintaining your cool at all times was awesome. You were a gentleman, and if the others couldn't see that, well, it's their loss.
Please don't take to heart the claptrap that you'll hear about, and which you didn't know while inside the house. A lot of it was strategy, and the need to 'demonise' the next target for eviction, so that those doing the nominating and voting could feel better about themselves, afterwards.
Shallow, immature, vain, and self-centred people's opinions should hold no fear for you-they mean nothing, and we know you will rise above it, and let it fall by the wayside, where it belongs-in the gutter. You know better than we can how the environment inside the house affects the people there-some have pretty pathetic and sad ways of hanging onto their sanity, and after they all leave that weird environment, I'm sure that they'll revert to human beings again, and I hope with all my heart that you can all laugh at how insane things were, in THAT place, and be friends!
I wish you and your family the very best of luck Gerry, and I sincerely hope that you will fulfill your dreams in the years to come. Give your wife and kids great big bear hugs, and make them laugh, and welcome back to the fresh air of REAL LIFE!
God bless you and yours, Gerry
Bernie aka Ruth

Gerry,

I wanted to write and let you know that I felt you did great in the BB house and appeared to stay true to yourself despite the other houseguests. I am sorry for the way the other houseguests spoke about you and the way you were portrayed. It is a shame that it seems most of them never gave themselves a chance to get to know you.

I wish the best for you and your family. I hope you can move past the ugliness shown by many of the other houseguests towards you and wish you success in your teaching career.

You are not the person the HGs are saying you are. They are just a bunch of 2 faced liars. Please just hold your head up and know you ARE better than them.

Good luck

Gerry -

Go back to your adorable family, in your great house, and let BB fade to black.

You played a great game.

Gerry,

The other houseguests were children, you tolerated them with a quiet dignity that I hope you can maintain on the outside.

This board was filled with staunch defenders of you and we were all appalled with how you were treated.

Best wishes to you in all your future endeavours

Gerry,

I pray that a way shows itself, that will guide you, and your family, to the place where the stings from this experience will be swept away.

Where the joy of reuniting with loved ones envelopes you and yours, and, all things undeserved will be, returned to sender.

Where the sweet memories are more 'fullsome' than you used to be

And where the twinkle in your eye finds its source.

Respectfully,

Gramsaz

Gerry,

Way to go! You lasted a whole heckuva lot longer than I would have. Just wish you could have had a peer. It was so unfair for you to be the only middle aged one in the house.

Take care and all the best!

Gerry,

If you are evicted tonight, I will be sorry to see you go. Your family looks wonderful and it is so obvious how much you all love each other. I think it was horrible the way the "kids" on the show treated you and I would have to turn off the feeds sometimes because it bothered me so much.

The kids you teach are lucky to have you in their classroom. We need more teachers who are proud to be teachers and who care so much about their job. I wish for much happiness for you and your family. :)

Gerry--

As many others have said, you were one of the favorites here in the internet community. Those of us who saw the live feeds were often appalled by the other HG's behavior toward you and appreciated your mature approach to the game. Sure, you were kinda eccentric and colorful but you were also real and seemed to stay true to your good self the entire time. It's a real shame that the other houseguests and the producers of this show couldn't see your potential.

Good luck to you, your family and friends should be proud of you and the way you conducted yourself in this game.
