I went to grammar school and junior high with Jerry. I was so sad to hear about his death. I remember playing basketball at Friendly House with him. Oh how he loved basketball. Here is photo of his basketball team from East Middle Junior High. My condolences to his family.

Lorraine and family I want to extend my deepest sympathy on the lost of your brother Jerry. I didn't know him as well as I knew you and the others. He must have been a special person because of the great family he was apart of. May he rest in peace.
May the peace of God be with all of you.

I haven't seen Gerry in quite a while but I do remember playing basketball with him many times down at Crompton Park back "in the day." Lot of fun and he will be remembered by me as a very warm person. Rest in peace.
