Jerry Childers Obituary

In Loving Memory
JD passed away January 10th, 2017 at home. He was the son of Evelyn Vasquez and Jerry Childers (deceased.) JD your spirit and personality shone bright in everything you did. You are free from your pain now and we can only hope you know how much your family loves you. Go fish with those we love who have gone before you and paint the sky knowing we will be thinking of you. Just dont keep calling Grandma non-stop that might freak her out.
We love you JD and may God bless you, until we see you again.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
