Are prayers go out to Zona and her family. I had the pleasure of working with Jerry for many years at Axletech, back then Rockwell. We worked in the same department same shift. Jerry was definitely ONE of a kind. A joke teller and was known to pull a prank also once in awhile. He will be missed, rest in peace Jerry.Dennis R. Schlaak and family.
