He was educated at St Michael's Primary School and Presentation Convent Daylesford (now Convent Gallery) before attending Ballarat Teachers' College (now the Federation University).[1]
Originally playing for Daylesford Football Club, Gervasoni was recruited from Ballarat and played as a rover for Fitzroy in the VFL from 1951 to 1956. He was then captain-coach of Northcote in the VFA for two years.[2]
Gervasoni was also known for his community work. He was elected to the Kew City Council in 1971 and served as mayor in 1978. He was a trustee of the Yarra Bend Park and president of many local organisations. The changerooms at Kew's Willsmere Park were named after him.[1]
Gervasoni taught and coached sports at Burke Hall (Xavier College Preparatory School) where an oval was named in his honour following his death in 1992.[1]
Two of Gervasoni's children followed him into education, Ann Gervasoni and Clare Gervasoni.
