Some images in a lifetime of memories never are forgotten. Jerry gave me one of those. It was a Christmas Day morning, in front of Jerry's house. He was standing out front wearing a pair of Christmas boxer shorts, no shirt, a Santa hat and holding a can of beer. Ho ho ho. Thanks for the memory, Jerry!

Jerry was a great man. We enjoyed his company in Minnesota. We appreciated his service in the military. Rest in peace, Big Jer !

My father in law, we had so little time to get to know each other yet in that time we found we were kindred spirits. I was selfishly looking forward to more time with you. For you to be with your daughter and your grandchildren. But what I realize now, I am truly more jealous than selfish. You walk with the Army of Angels in Heaven. I look forward to serving with you soon.
Semper Fi Dad.
