Rece, I know the pain of losing a father. I can say that as bad as the hurt is, over time you will come to relish the memories of happier times. There will always be an empty place in your heart, and that is a good thing.
May God comfort you and your family at this time.
With much sympathy from a Bama fan.

My mother worked with Jerry first wife Janice when they lived in Guin, Al. One time my mother lawn mower wasn't working. Jerry was so nice he drove 25 miles with his lawn mower and cut my mother grass at no charge. Your parents were wonderful people. Sorry for your loss. May God give you and your family strength during this difficult time.

Jerry, you brought light to everyone who knew you. I only had the gift of you for a short time, but during that time you touched my heart, made me laugh and smile, and brought a joy to Tim and Ruth that can't be expressed. You are already missed so much. Bless you for everything you were to all of us.
