Aunt Ruth,

I was so sorry to hear about Uncle Jerry passing away. I always remember him as the "cool Hip" uncle. He could always make me laugh. I never felt like a stupid kid around him...you either for that matter. All the memories I have of the both of you are happy ones...I'll always remember Uncle Jerry telling his crazy jokes and all of us laughing. He will be missed, but he will always be smiling in our hearts.

Much Love, your niece Pam
