Jerry Wilburn

I liked Jerry so much. I wish I had been around him more. He was a genuine person. Jim Comer Grandson of Tom Taylor of Mantachie, Miss.

He was a good friend.

I first met Jerry when I worked at Cook-Coggin Engineers as a high school student in the 60's. Then I served a term in the Mississippi Legislature with him. For four years, He, Butch Lambert , Tommy Brooks and I would ride to Jackson together on Monday and return on Friday. I got a great education during those weekly rides with Jerry. Since his obituary told some of his stories, I will add another one. On one week , as the four of us were riding back home on a Friday, the discussion came up...

We certainly will miss our longtime friend and neighbor from Waterloo. It’s been a pleasure to know and appreciate Jerry for his wit, hospitality, and colorful storytelling. Our deepest condolences are with you during this difficult time.

So sorry for your loss, he was a great friend. May God give you comfort as only he can.

The Jumper family of Prentiss County (Jumpertown) is so sorry for your loss. Jerry was a wonderful friend. He spent several hours talking & laughing with my grandfather (Herschel) & my dad (Gatha). We have some wonderful memories of which could tell the "tallest". We are praying for each of you during this difficult time. Lu, Mary Evelyn, & Donna Jumper

So sorry for your loss
