Gerald "Gerry" Colwell (previously Taylor) is the brother of Dot Branning and grandfather of Reiss Colwell.
History[]
In his early years Gerry and his siblings Tim and Rose were raised by their neglectful mother Martha. His older half-sister Dot returned from the war and took responsibility for her siblings. Gerry hated his father and changed his name from Taylor to Colwell (Dot's maiden name) as soon as he was old enough.
In December 2022, Gerry's grandson Reiss attended Dot's funeral and became acquainted with her step-granddaughter Sonia. He mentioned that Gerry had passed away a decade prior and that he had never forgiven himself for allowing Dot to be "whisked of by Charlie for a life of neglect".
