Mary:
I am so sorry to hear of Jerry's passing. I was very fond of him and loved his quick wit, and sense of humor. He was such a wonderful man. I'm so sorry I did not make it to the funeral home. I just saw it today in the Hatcher Herald. Jerry, Max and I taught first grade Sunday school there many years ago. I know his love and deep spiritual devotion touched many.
