Although I was not lucky enough to meet Jerry, I know how happy he made my mother, and for that I will be eternally grateful.

We will all miss a wonderful, caring, loving and compassionate father, grandfather and great grandfather and a very special man in my life, who was always there for everyone.

Life will not be the same without him, but we will all go on and miss him more than words can express.

Thinking of all the Coppolo family at this very sad time.
