Jerry Lee and I were cousins sharing the same birthday with him being two years younger. Never a more humble, loving, kind and trusting person. Sometimes his trust in people cost him dearly but he only knew to forgive. Jerry believed in God and knew what the afterlife would have for him. Rest is peace "cuz".

R.I.P uncle jerry. You will truly be missed. You were the most humble and sweetest person I've ever met. No matter how bad of a day someone was having it only took one of your funny jokes to brighten someone's day! Love you.

RIP Jerry. I didn't know you as well as I could have but I know anyone grandmother brought into this world had to be a special person. I'm sure you're rejoicing in heaven with her now.
