Remembering Larry Gerwig

In Memory of Larry Gerwig

The Clearwater Jazz Holiday family is greatly saddened by the passing of our dear friend and long-time Board Member, Larry Gerwig. During his more than 20 years of service on the Clearwater Jazz Holiday Foundation Board of Directors, Larry served as President, Chair of the Governance Committee, member of the Executive Committee and member of the High Note Society.

Larry had a special temperament and was always a calming influence to those around him. His wisdom and experience and ability to frame and communicate issues made him a valuable asset to the business of our not-for-profit organization. He fiercely supported and encouraged CJH Outreach & Education initiatives and was very proud to participate and watch the programs evolve and blossom over the many years.

Larry and Linda rarely missed a High Note Society social or special CJH event and were always glad to bring new friends and introduce new fans to the party and tradition. His hugs and smiles were unforgettable!

Larry’s legacy motivates us and he is with us as we carry on the Clearwater Jazz Holiday tradition of Music, Education & Outreach in the many years ahead.

We love and miss you, Larry, and are grateful for our time together, the many wonderful memories, and your dedication to our mission.

Larry’s family has requested that donations be made in lieu of Flowers to the Beach Art Center and/or Clearwater Jazz Holiday Foundation, Inc.
