Condolence From: Gerry Perrin
Condolence: I worked with Dr. Gerber for many years at Lakewood and even sat on opposite sides of the table with him during teacher contract negotiations. I always thought Carl had a just right amount of humor and a genuine sense of humility. I liked him. My thoughts go to his family.

Condolence: I first met Carl when I interviewed for a faculty position at Lakewood Community College (now Century College). I was fortunate to be selected. Carl was a superb college president; smart, funny, kind, and firm when he needed to be. He was dedicated to making Lakewood a place that was good for employees and especially for educating students. He was a great role model and will be greatly missed. My condolences to his family.

Condolence: I was a professor at Anoka-Ramsey Community College where I first met and worked with Carl, and then later (and still) a professor at Lakewood (now Century) Community College. I liked Carl very much and send my sincere condolences to his family and friends.

Condolence: To the Family of Carl Gerber: In the Bible at Psalms 90:10 it refers to those who live well into their 70’s or 80’s as being ‘especially strong.’ Your beloved was blessed with this strength. May that strength trickle down to family and friends helping you to cope in the days ahead. As you cherish warm memories, lean on God for ‘everlasting comfort and good hope’ 2 Thessalonians 2:16, 17, for he is close to those ‘brokenhearted’ Psalm 34:18. My deepest sympathy.

Condolence: Dear Meg and Joe,
I was sorry to hear about Carl's passing. It is hard to think that all 9 siblings are now gone. It was a blessing to grow up with such strong role models. I can only hope that my children and grandchildren will be as blessed by my presence in their lives. Joe and I are planning to attend Carl's Memorial and I look forward to seeing you. Love Marie
