We are very sorry to share the news of the passing of Gil Gerard. He was probably most well-known for his role in the iconic series “Buck Rogers in the 25th Century.”
The news was shared by his wife, Janet Gerard.
“Early this morning Gil – my soulmate – lost his fight with a rare and viciously aggressive form of cancer,” Jill shared on Facebook. “From the moment when we knew something was wrong to his death this morning was only days. No matter how many years I got to spend with him it would have ever been enough. Hold the ones you have tightly and love them fiercely.”
Our thoughts are with his friends, family, and fans. He was 82.
