my experience with Jerry was professional. I enjoyed working with him because of his humor and intelligence when dealing with serious problems. His contribution with Tamin's board of directors was priceless. I will miss him.

To Jo and Olin regarding the loss of Jerry - How the Coastside will miss his sage advice! Jerry always knew how to walk the path via the straight and narrow and could nudge people to do the right thing without ruffling feathers. I got to know him when we were creating the 501c3 for the Light up the Sky 4th of July. It was evident that he was so Patriotic that he even suggested we use a quote which I shall include here, from the 2nd President of the United States, John Adams speaking about the 4th of July: "It ought to be solemnized by pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more."
Jerry, I looked up to you as a shining beacon of how to live. You will certainly be missed by all.
My condolences to Jo and Olin. You were very blessed to have Jerry in your lives, and I am sad for your loss.

Jerry was most helpful in a local land use conflict in our neighborhood three years ago, which became known as the Battle of San Juan Hill. My deepest sympathies to Jo and Olin.

To my friend Jo, and to my former preschool student Olin, my warmest thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Jerry was a beacon of light on our beloved Coastside.

Jerry your words, wit and wisdom will be missed. I want to thank you for all your hard work and care for coast side preservation and especially for your insight in drafting the bi-laws for the Mid-Coast Community Council. I will miss your presence at the HMB 4th of July Parade where I could always count on your smile and good cheer. To your wife, Jo and son, Olin, my family sends its heartfelt condolences.
