Ferry Cross The Mersey

So sad to hear this…Gerry Marsden has passed away. Saw him last at Butlins 60’s Weekend in December 2016. :cry: :cry:

His agent, Robert Pratt, said in a statement that Marsden passed away at Arrow Park Hospital on the Wirral on Sunday morning.

Mr Pratt added: "Myself and The Pacemakers are devastated at the sad news of the passing of Gerry Marsden MBE.

“Losing such a legend is never easy. We were all blessed to work with Gerry for many years. We send our condolences and deepest sympathies to his wife… and the family at this sad time.”

Of course, he will always be remembered for You’ll Never Walk Alone and Ferry Cross The Mersey.

I loved his music and seeing him on Top Of The Pops as part of that glorious Mersey Beat era.

I never met the man or saw him perform but I imagine he was a really nice guy.

Thanks for the times Gerry,

Richard
