Jerry was a good man and a TRUE friend to my father Joe, and as such, a true friend to our family. He will not be forgotten. I remember many a long summer night at the Butterfield home with all us kids running amok; 'the best of times'. I truly enjoyed working with Jerry while at Ferro on a brief IT contract back in the day. Although I know that no words can ease the loss you feel, just know that you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers - The Boyle Family - Joseph, Margaret,...

Margaret, Greg and the Butterfield family,
So sorry to hear about your father's passing. I know Margaret how you always cherished your time at home, with your dad, when you were up for a visit. May he rest now in the arms of angels and hold his memories, close to your heart. May God comfort you all during this difficult time
