Gerhard was a regular participant in RoboCup since the very early years of our organization. He was a trustee of the RoboCup Federation starting in 2005, and served as Vice President from 2009 until 2016. In 2016, he served as General Chair of RoboCup in Leipzig, Germany. His contributions to RoboCup over the years were substantial and numerous.
Gerhard was a dear friend to many of us in our community. We will remember him as always smiling and full of energy. He leaves us all with very fond memories and a strong legacy of contributions to AI, robotics, and RoboCup that will continue to live on.
