My sincerest condolences to the McDougal family on Jerry's passing. Jerry served on the Board of the Catholic Health Care System where he Chaired the Finance Committee. As the CFO, I worked very closely with him and was fortunate to learn many things from him about how to conduct business. With out question he was one of the finest gentlemen I have ever known. I will keep him and his family in my prayers.

Uncle Jerry - the next generation of McDougals and progeny will miss you. You and Aunt Rose were the genesis of many good times in our family. May you enjoy the days ahead with dad, Uncle Ed and Aunt Jane. I know there is a party going on in heaven with much music and laughter.

Please accept my sincere condolances at the loss of your dear husband. My husband, Art Bartone passed away last September and worked with Jerry at Apple Bank. I remember how fond he was of Jerry and spoke often of him and his great sense of humor. They also shared their love of racing at Saratoga and we ran into Jerry many times during our visits there. My sincere sympathy to the McDougal family. Believe me, I know what a terrible loss it is to lose a loved one.

My condolences to you, Linda and Rose, on the passing of "Uncle" Jerry. I have fond memories of him with my Uncle Bubby and Aunt LaLa. In fact, he played at my wedding back in 1973. May the memories you hold of him be a source of comfort.
Sincerely,
Patty (O'Neil) Culleton

How can I ever forget shouting "Joe must go!' in Jerry's campaign against Carlino in 1964 and then he actually won! Made us in Freeport very proud.
