I met these wonderful people when I married into the family. Jerry always had a smile on his face and was always a joy to be around , but Jerry is now with Audree and he is at peace.

Growing up as neighbors, I will always remember Mr. and Mrs. Jarrett and how much my parents liked the Jarrett family. It was so nice to live across from the beautiful walnut orchard. Audree and Jerry were wonderful neighbors who made their visitors feel special.
