Not sure what to say?

Laurie and Patti, I am so sorry for your loss I worked with Jerry while we were both stationed in Sioux City Air Defense Center, and lived a couple hoses apart in the Sergeant Bluff military housing.

Dad's service was 12/19/14 at Willamette National. Full Military Honor Guard. It was beautiful. Dad would have been proud.

Dad was laid to rest in Willamette National Cemetery on 12/19/14. He's on Mt. Hood Drive and has a view of St. Helens, Mt. Adams (and on a clear day) Mt. Rainier. The full honors military ceremony was beautiful and I know dad loved seeing the honor guard with very shiny shoes. Miss you Dad! Love you. patti

Prayers for your family and sorry for your loss. Lived on the East Side and it was my dad God rest his should who first took me to Caseys when I was a boy. Went there on into my teens and when I'd stop ask in Des Moines over the years would always stop by. He will be missed
