Slim,
I am very sorry to hear about your loss. You may not remember me but to remind you take a look at http://www.geocities.com/Nashville/9947/links.htm there you will see some pictures of you, myself, and a few other friends of yours. I will say a special prayer for you and the rest of your family. God Bless You...

To Slim and all the Whitman family,

Please accept my condolences for the sad loss of your wife and mother. But what a wonderful woman, to love and inspire and bring about so much in her family! Such personality, zest for life and tender involvement wherever she could care and help. Now in God's hands, somehow she continues her loving watch over you all. May this thought sustain you in the times ahead, as your lives unfold in memories of sunshine and her warmth.

One does not have to be related to a person to mourn them. I was lucky to see Jerry at the 1980 concert here in Jacksonville FL, then I met her at the concert in Jacksonville in 1985...Jerry & I started corresponding 1980, as I had a few pictures of Byron to give her, since that was Byron's 1st concert in Jax.

To Slim and The Whitman family.
May I send my heartfelt condolences at this very sad time. My thoughts are with you in this most difficult time.

My deepest condolences to Slim, Byron, and Sharon. I have so many happy memories of traveling the world with this remarkable family. Jerry was truly the force behind the whole operation! I know the last few years have been very difficult, and I know Jerry is in a better place, so my thoughts and prayers go to Slim as he moves forward alone.

As you and your family go through life's greatest sorrow, the loss of someone you love, may God sustain you, bring you comfort today, courage for tomorrow and hope in your heart always. With deepest sympathy and prayers from a fan of 57 years.

Dear Slim and Family,

Through both your concert tours and recordings we like many of your followers feel we have become part of your family and are therefore deeply saddened by your loss of Jerry and share in your grief.
May you find courage in your time of grieving.
