GERARD, MONK OF CLAIRVAUX
Gerard (Gerardus), a disciple of Saint Bernard, is mentioned among the Praetermissi by the Bollandists*, as his veneration is uncertain. He was a monk at Clairvaux. Henriquez's Cistercian Menologium* and Bucelin's Benedictine Menologium* refer to him as "Blessed Bernard." He is listed in the Gallican Martyrology* with the title "of pious remembrance." (I.359)
