I was so sorry and surprised to hear about Jerry.....just happened to be talking to Shirley Myers and she told me. Jerry was a very kind and lovely lady who I enjoyed getting to know. I know how much she and Loring loved each other and enjoyed many happy travels together. She will be dearly missed by her family and friends. Much Love, Jan Duran
