I met Jerry 8 yrs. ago on the street he lived on ,I have a small grass cutting business and was cutting a customer grass down the street he always would blow horn and wave when he went by ,one day he stopped and introduced himself and gave me tip on edging after that we talked every time he went by. Jerry is a beautiful spirit with a heart of gold I'll miss seeing and talking with him ,My prayers and condolences to his family and friends and blessings of peace and joy on his Journey Home in God's Creation.
