Blessings and peace to you and the family. I didn't know Jerry very well, but Krista is our wonderful daughter-in-law, and she surely must have gotten some fine traits from Jerry! May wonderful memories of Jerry be your comfort!

Jerry was a great friend for most of my life. One of the first dates my wife and I went on was a party at Jerry's house. That was almost 34 years ago.
We had the great pleasure of working together for over thirty years.
Our deepest sympathy for the entire Locke family. We're very sorry to be out of town and unable to attend his services. God Bless,
Bob & Kathy Morber
