Edward "Jerry" Gunderson

Marilyn and my neices and nephews. So sorry for your loss. I met Jerry in College, and he always could make you smile. He was dedicated and faithful to his ministry. Your cousins also loved him. What a fine man.

I was Jerry's nephew from his brother John. I remember as a 5 & 6 year old his enthusiasm for the Lord, and was always excited to tell my dad what Christ was doing in his life. Richard Gunderson, Portland,OR "rich.gunderson@airgas.com"

First, Jerry was a friend we met on the baseball field because our son and his Grandsons played baseball together. He would not miss a game! Second, he was a wonderful Christian Mentor to us and so many! Third, Jerry renewed our wedding vows. Fourth, Jerry married our daughter and son in law. His message that day touched everyone and he made it so simple and precious. Thank you, Jerry for your sense of humor, your loving personality and being a Godly man that shared the Word of our Lord, Jesus Christ, every day of your life! Ken and Janis Daudt

My deepest sympathies to Marilyn and family. You have lost a treasure. Knowing Jerry has been one of the greatest blessings in my life. He and I became fast friends, and I always looked forward to talking to him on Sundays. Jerry was a shining star for our congregation - the most positive person I have ever met, always smiling, with a joke for every occasion. He was the finest man I have ever met. I wish I could tell him. I will miss him dearly.

We loved knowing and loving Jerry for many years and his call every Dec 4th, the birthday Rick and Jerry shared. His Gospel Magic thrilled and taught children of all ages the Truth of the Lord Jesus. I know he is continuing his ready smile and laugh with the other Saints and Angels in Heaven.
