I wen't to Epiphany grade school with Jerome and his brother Pat. I haven't seen them since graduation, but I was very sad to hear of his passing. We had a lot of good times. My condolences to the Lannon family. May god bless you in this time of sorrow. My prayers are with you.

Dear Barb,
I wish I were there to see you in person and give you my condolences. Please know that you and your family are in my prayers. A friend once told me that when we lose a loved one, we gain a guardian angel, and I truly believe that.
All my love,
Beth

I only worked with Jerry for a few years but I learned a great deal from him. Jerry was a very smart, down to earth, thoughtful, and caring person. To all of his family I express my condolences and I am glad to have known him.

Having worked in the same office at ComEd with Jerry for several years, I considered him a gentleman with a quick mind, a kind nature, and a ready wit. My sympathy is extended to his family in this time of transition.
