It seems like Jerry was sitting behind me in every class through grade school and high school. Which meant no end of trouble for both of us. The world is a poorer place without him.

My condolences to the Carson family and to all of Jerry's friends. I know he's seeing lots of old friends in his new home, others who worked for and with us at SNS. I never worked for Jerry but did interact with him on the United Way Budget Committee. He was a quiet and dedicated man - Rest in Peace!

Jerry... I am so grateful for the time we spent together over the years discussing our spiritual nature! One experience, which connects our souls forever... is the trip taken to the Holy Land during the Christmas season. The fun we shared, the laughter, and the spiritual experiences, in which words are unable to describe, will forever connect us no matter where our Soul resides. My heart is warm with the thought of knowing, you are in this sacred place and know it's peace, and yet......

I worked for Jerry for many, many years at North Supply. He was so good to me when my mom was dying with cancer and giving me the support I needed when I lost my own baby. He was so smart yet caring with his employees. Just seeing all of the messages from others just like me, makes you know how good of a man Jerry was.

Jerry continued to participate in the North Supply "Old Timers" gatherings even when he was not feeling his best. His thoughtfulness and kind heart will be missed.

Gerry Carson is a very good friend of mine. We had lots in common as both were Marines that served in Viet Nam. When we moved to KC in 1977 from Florida, Gerry approached me my second day and said "can I buy you lunch." We went to his house where his beautiful wife Ann fixed us lunch. Later we toured the area and got familiar with the real estate. As our friendship grew the "boys" took several trips to Vegas which were alot of fun. Once I had sold several barges full of telephone poles to...
