The Winthrop Rockefeller Institute announced the death of beloved employee Gerry Soltz in a Facebook post on Wednesday.
“We are deeply saddened to share that another member of the Institute family, Gerry Soltz, passed away June 15. Gerry has been a fixture at the Institute for the entirety of our 15+ year history and wore many professional ‘hats’ for us, always fabulous and fashionable,” the post read.
Soltz worked in the Institute’s gift shop, where many visitors made a point to visit her and engage in warm conversation.
