Oh, Carol, I just came across this notice about Jerry. My heart is so sad for you. Jerry was a kind friend. At least twice a year after Carl died, Jerry would call to check how my family was doing. He always had a story to share and updates on various common friends/business associates. I'm sure he and Carl are up there conjuring up some sort of mischief!
