My Dearest Jerry,

Exactly two years have gone by since you were taken from me. With you by my side I was allowed to live on this Earth easy and free. Always making me feel safe, secure, treasured, cherished and loved each and every moment of the day. You allowed me to flourish and never held me back in any way. You were always in my corner 110%. As I was always in yours. Our love for one another was so very rare. Very few can claim the same. You were a true gift that I will...

TO A GOOD FRIEND, JERRY,

TWENTY-FIVE YEARS OF FRIENDSHIP WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN. YOU WERE ALWAYS THERE WHEN NEEDED. YOU NEVER HAD A HARSH WORD TO SAY ABOUT ANYONE. YOU SHOWED PASSION, INTEGRITY & SHOWED GOOD SENSE IN MAKING DECISIONS. DOTTIE & I MISS YOU DEEPLY.

Each day I am reminded of the special role you played in my life. As my children grow, I feel a void as you are not a part of their life. I keep many memories close to my heart. They remind me of the respect I have for you and how you have inspired me thru the years. I have always cherished Katy and I know that one of the happiest times in your life was when you were with her, I could see it in your eyes. This made me happy as you deserve happiness. Shortly, two years wil have passed...

Dear Jerry,

The most wonderful gift you left me when you passed away is the relationship I maintain with your niece/goddaughter and her family. Their love, support, understanding and friendship have been so wonderful. You would be so proud to know that they are looking out for me.

I am so extremely grateful to have them in my life. Through my relationship with them you live on.

Love Always and Forever,
Katy

Our love for one another was so very special and could not be surpassed. You were and always will be the true love of my life. The love and closeness that we shared was so very strong. I knew you felt the same. There was not a day that went by that you did not express...

To my Uncle & Godfather ~
Thank you for watching over me and my family, for being my guiding light.

Gerry always had time for a driver who had a problem and needed advice. He could usually come up with a good solution. Our sincere condolences to his family. May he rest in peace with the knowledge that he did his best
