I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I am a friend of Derek Jerome Brennan. He has always spoken highly of his grandfather, and I believe that many other people's lives have been touched as deeply as Derek's. Truly we are all at a loss for losing someone so special. My best wishes to the entire family and all of Jerry's friends. God bless.

I have met very few people in my entire life who had such a profound effect on me. He was my mentor and my conscience for the number of years I had the privilege of working for him, but most of all he was a dear and trusted friend.
They don't make men like Jerry anymore and I will always remember him.
To OJ and the boys my deepest sympathy.

Dear Peter, Cheryl, Matthew, Colin and Haley,

I am very sorry to hear of the loss of Jerry. The few times that I met your father and grandfather, I recognized his compassion immediately. He could light up the room with his bright smile for even those who didn't have the privilege of knowing him well.

You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

A man who exemplified the best of "uncles". He treated this niece as respectfully as he did his own children. It was a priviliege to know him.
