Not sure what to say?

Dear Jerry, Needless to say we talk a lot about Dr. Donald Cerrone, a dear friend and family doctor since we were teenagers. What a great man with a super nurse/wife. You are always in our prayers and our hearts. We never miss the opportunity to watch grandson "Cowboy Cerrone" on T.V. and how proud he is of you, always seeing you on T.V. at the fights. We reflect back on the meeting at your home when the Doctor was showing us the hall wall with all of the pictures and mementos of his...

Here it is 10 years after you passed, and I think, talk, and remember the good..no..great times you and your lovely Jerrie shared with me. My entire family was blessed because of YOU guys! "Doc C" was my mentor and concience. Jerrie was my advisor and my angel that saw me through the tough times. I miss them now, tomorrow, and forever. Dio benedica loro e la loro famiglia..

Dr. Cerrone was my childhood pediatrician. Twenty five years later I still have wonderful memories of him. I use the "peas and carrots" in the ear gag with my own children. :-) I tried to google him today because I wanted to send him a thank you card for his wonderful bedside manner and to let him know that I think of him all these years later. I am saddened to hear that such a wonderful man was taken from us. Rest in peace...

We just found the sad news today. We experienced a personal family disaster when Dr. Cerrone retired and have not recovered. He was a source of strength and hope to our family, and we willl miss him always. It is impossible to keep the tears away as we write this. Ron, Marta, Renee, and Michelle Jakaitis

Jerry, I'm so sorry for being so late but Mike DeBaca just told me today. You guys took good care of my family and we loved seeing you and Dr. Cerrone even though it was usually under stressful situations. (except at some Italian restaurants) My Dad and his dad were best of friends and I particularly remember Don seeing my Dad and Dad would say after we left "See Italian doctors know what's wrong and know how to fix it." God Bless you Jerry.

Dr Cerrone was our childhood doctor and cared for my children as well for a time. You always knew you were getting the truth from him. It may not always be what you wanted to hear but always what you needed to hear. He cared for his patients with great integrity and compassion. I saw him several years later in Safeway on 44th and Wadsworth still perfectly put together perfect hair and beard. And it made me smile for so much that changes in the world he was a constant. He remembered all my...

Dr Cerrone was our family Dr since I was a baby and one of my all time favorite people. He was a wonderful man. I have often wished that he was still practicing so he could care for my own children and, in particular, meet my daughter, who I know he would have loved.
As I was reading previous comments I realized he made all his patients feel as special as he made me feel. What a kind and gifted man. What a lovely life and legacy. We were all so blessed and I am personally so grateful to...

We are so sorry for your loss, Jerry and family. You and Don have been important parts of our lives throughout our time in Colorado, and I am personally deeply grateful to you for your kindness to my mom over the years. May your time of healing from this loss be blessed.

My doctor, my friend, my adviser... Don And Jer always had time for me and my life crises. I personally will miss him as a person. Don inspired me. Jer, I miss you and your personal interest in me also, for you always had my best interest at heart.
Love you guys, Michael DeBaca
