Published by Legacy Remembers on May 10, 2011.

ANDLINGER, Ger, 15, son of Jeanne Dailey Andlinger and Gerhard R. Andlinger of Aspen, CO, and Greenwich, CT, passed away on May 8, 2011.

Ger was a graduate of the Aspen Country Day School where he was a member of Student Government and was the theatrical lead in the school's annual play. He formerly attended St. David's School in NY. At the time of his passing, Ger was a sophomore at Loomis Chaffee School in Windsor, Ct. At Loomis, he also participated in theatre and Student Government, was elected Class President by his classmates and played on the school's lacrosse and water polo teams. An adventurer who loved the outdoors, he also excelled in downhill skiing, ocean surfing and SCUBA diving.

He is survived by his adoring parents, his loving brothers, Merrick and Tristan, sisters Nicole Linn and Margaux Maas, sister-in-law, Linny Andlinger, brother-in-law, Robert Maas, grandmother, Martha Beard Walton, aunts, Sallie Dailey Donner and Suzann Fisher Dailey, cousin Taylor Donner, nieces, Vail, Chantal, Estelle, and nephews, Nick and Bodie. He will also be missed by innumerable friends in Connecticut, Aspen, Florida and around the world, which he circumnavigated over the years with his parents and family members on the family's sailboat.

A private service will be held at the family home in Aspen on Sunday, May 15th. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations in Ger's name to the Theophile Outreach Center: Attn: Joel Bastien, 249 East 88th Street, Brooklyn, NY 11

Dear Jeannie and Gary and Tristen,

I am sitting here in Geneva and have been praying for you all all week. I so wish I could be with you to celebrate Ger's life on Sunday. I remember with such awe and wonder Ger's prayer during Tristen's baptism in Austria. We know that Ger is safely in His father's arms and that in some way he is still with us in a new and spiritual sphere. In joy for the way he has enriched and blessed our lives, in sorrow for his life being so short, in hope of eternal life, and in prayer and solidarity with you in the coming days, months, and years...forever,
Clair Ullmann+

We will always remember Ger's amazing energy and spirit. His years at Saint David's were so happy for him, and he was well loved by his wonderful family and countless friends. It was a privilege to teach such a caring, inquisitive boy. Matthew particularly wants Tristan to know how much he is thinking of him. He remembers how much he adored his older brother, Ger. Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers.
