Gerhard moved to Edson in 1954 with his wife Adele where he worked as a Carpenter. He retired in 1986, giving him time to enjoy the things that he loved the most: family, friends, fishing, hunting, camping and his garden.

Gerhard had 4 grandsons: Corey (Amanda) of Edson, Andrew (Jodi) of Edson, Benjamin (Alyssa) of Edmonton and Eric (Devyn) of Edmonton. He also left 7 great grandchildren to mourn.
