Gerald Robert Tolle
Went to be with the Lord December 4th. Born May 20th 1926 in Versailles, 
IL. Gerald was raised in Oklahoma, the youngest of five siblings. Work 
as a welder in the WWII Berkley shipyards brought him to California in 
his late teens. He retired as a welder at the Edwards AFB Rocket 
Propulsion Lab after 36 years of Civil Service. Twelve years of part 
time employment with the Boron Community Services District served to 
help keep him busy after retiring from Edwards. While a talented welder, 
he was also considered a gifted guitar player by many. Gerald is survived 
by his wife of 56 years Jane Frances Tolle, sons Randall Robert (Colleen) 
and Timothy, daughter Tamara Gunter (Brian), grandchildren Harmony Larsen 
(Thor), Melanie Jorgensen (Jeff), Kyle Robert Gunter, Krista Gunter and 
great grandson Jason Robert Jorgensen. Graveside services were held at 
Mojave Cemetery on Wednesday, December 8, 2004.
