| Info | Hansen grew up in Nebraska with his two sisters (Peggy Dugick and Norma Morehouse) who still live there. He graduated from the University of Nebraska at Omaha and made his mark in business in New York City.
He excelled in marketing—first as a VP of marketing for Yardly of London, and then for Coro Industries. Much of his executive business experience was as CEO of Zenith-Movado Time Corporation and CEO of Girard Perregaux Time Corporation.
From New York City to Pike County
Hansen and Jim Levell, his Life Partner of 47 years, moved to Milford in 1985 because Gerry wanted a “house in the country.” What started as a weekend house soon became their main focus. Hansen and Levell bought the Dimmick Inn and Steakhouse in 1987. Hansen was the host and basically ran the place. Levell did graphics for the restaurant and mainly worked behind the scenes. Many people made life-long friendships with Gerry because of getting to know him though the restaurant.
Hansen had been living in Pike County since 1985, became a familiar face as a partner with Ed and Karen Loeschorn, in the Dimmick Inn & Steakhouse in Milford.
During that time he was deeply involved in the community. He served a term Pike County Commissioner, 2000-03, and was an unsuccessful Democratic candidate for county treasurer in 2004.
He served as the president of the Pike County Chamber of Commerce, sat on the board of Bon Secours Hospital and United Way of Pike County.
