Alan Gerry: Sullivan County
built 629 days ago
A behind-the-scenes player, Gerry had a fortune tied to the county's mountainous terrain, about 100 miles, or 160 kilometers, north of New York City, where television reception was poor. Many in these parts still remember him as their television repairman. He now runs Granite Associates, which manages the family's assets.

The idea of holding a contest to improve the aesthetics of Sullivan County originated with Sandra Gerry, a life-long county resident. While Sandra and her husband Alan Gerry were traveling in the French Alps, they visited a village that had won a regional beautification competition. All of the inhabitants had participated with planting, painting and cleaning up. Together they had changed the look of their community – filling it with flowers, tidiness and warmth.

Hinchey called Alan Gerry “a marvelous person. . . . All of the warmth and humanity in him is expressed for the benefit of Sullivan County. . . . The impact will have repercussions far beyond Sullivan County.”

Mike DiTullo is quoted as saying "this wasn't the way Gerry wanted it" refering to the arrest of Abigal and Daniel. If it wasn't the way he wanted it, then why did Mr. gerry sign the trespassing papers to have the "Stormers" leave peacefully in the first place? There is a direct contradiction in terms here. Its never to late to drop charges after a few days of contemplative relection from the gang up there in Sullivan County relative to ones hasty decisons and actions.......
