Dear Linda and girls, I could hardly believe the sad news, I only learned of Jerry's death this afternoon or I surely would have attended the service. I do not know if you girls remember me, I am old friend of your moms from the xray department, and of your dads too. I hear Linda has had some struggles. Remember me to her please, and Blessings to you all. I know you are a family of faith so you will have the strength you need. My husband (Tom) died in January. Love to all, Sue (Linda calls me Susie) Sipes

We are sorry for your loss. What a wonderful, sprit filled, non-judgemental, all around happy person he was. I know that he was very proud of his family and loved you all dearly. It is also obvious by the number of people that attended visitation, that he was well loved in return. Our prayers are with you.

Amy and Angie, my heart breaks for many members of your family right now but none more than the 2 of you. I was unable to be at visitation but hear there was overwhelming support. That should make you proud that SO MANY people love your dad and you. I'll be at the memorial service but unsure if I'll get to see you. Sorry ladies. My love and best wishes to you.
