Gerald Hendron

June 12, 1938 — October 30, 2024

Gerald Edward Hendron, a cherished man of many passions and cherished memories, was born on June 12, 1938, in the bustling city of Chicago, IL. He passed away on October 30, 2024, in Wausau, WI, at the age of 86.


Gerald was a devoted fan of the Chicago Bears and the Chicago White Sox, finding joy in following their games. He had a fondness for writing stories about George Washington and held a deep interest in the Civil War and percussion guns. Growing up in Chicago, his heart belonged to the city, but he eventually found his way to St. Germain and later settled in Wausau.


A proud veteran, Gerald bravely served in the United States Army, a chapter of his life marked by dedication and sacrifice. On August 7, 1979, he married the love of his life, Barbara, and together they raised their son, David. In the tapestry of his life, Gerald was also blessed with a great-grandchild, Rose, who brought immense joy and laughter into his world.


Gerald's passion for life, his unwavering love for his family, and his kind spirit will be dearly missed. He leaves behind a son, David (Karin), a great-grandchild, Rose, and a host of other relatives and friends who will forever hold his memory close.


A private family service was held.


Gerald Edward Hendron's legacy will continue to live on in the hearts of all who had the privilege of knowing him, as his kindness, laughter, and love echo through the memories he leaves behind.
