Dear Cousins & Families,
I will long remember the smile, the jokes, the songs. I can't remember Uncle Jerry ever having a bad day.I will keep all of you in my prayers knowing what you are going through at this time.

I am very sorry for your loss.

To Jerrys Family, Sorry about POPS. He is up there playing pitch with his family and friends. He is also giving Elaine her goodnight kisses that he missed so much. Remember the good times and all will rest in peace. Snookie

To the Brackett family , I'm so sorry for your loss , I have many fond memories of Jerry as well as your mom - they will always have a special place in my heart as you all were like a second family to me. Cindi , always know that you are like a sister to me and if you need anything please let me know ! Love and sympathies to you all!

To the Brackett Family,
My husband & I are very sorry for your loss. We had the chance to see Jerry recently in September at a mutual friend's home. It certainly was a pleasant visit with Jerry and he will be greatly missed by us. I will never forget how he had the knack to recite poems and sing Irish songs. Such a pleasant personality and always willing to help others.
We will surely remember all the times shared with Jerry & Elaine!

To Dee, Marybeth,Cindy,Pat,Shannon and Grandkids. Your Father and grandfather, my god father. Uncle Gerry will be missed by all that knew him at celebrations and parties through his life with songs,dances,jokes,and the show stopper of "standing on his Head"! moments that we will never forget.With another family member leaving us, let us all remember the good times we had together with our families. May Uncle Gerry rest in Peace!

Dear Pat,
We will be praying for you and your mother as you prepare for Jerry's funeral. I understand this is hard for you. My God comfort you and guide you with the Holy Spirit as preparations are made for Jerry's memorial. I really enjoyed Jerry when I was able to visit him and your grandmother when I lived in the area. He was very gracious to me then.
