During my time at TV-11, Jerry was always a nice man...helpful, sense of humor, cheerful..always a smile. Lately it's been my pleasure to see him with his grown children and grandchildren on Facebook, Nice family,too! Glen Loyd

Jerry and I were friends and shipmates on the USS Observation Island. I spent some time in Green Bay after I got out of the Navy, and always found it histerical that he would become Bozo the Clown. One of the nicest and most upbeat guys I have ever known. RIP Jerry.

Sorry to hear of your loss, we always enjoyed our times with your family at Crivitz. Bob and Jan Kafka.

Diane,
I am so sorry to hear of Jerry's passing. This is way to young and retirement cut way to short. Thank god for family and friends. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all of you.

Danielle, Jeff and Zach - we were so sorry to hear about your father's passing. From what I have read about him, he was truly unique and will be missed terribly by many. Remember, we are only a backyard away.

I worked with Jerry at WLUK for three years. He was an inspiring man and was liked by all he worked with. I appreciated his work ethic and enthusiasm for his job. he will be missed.

Jason and Tracie and family,
I am so sorry for your loss.. I cannot tell you how sad I am for all of you! My thoughts and prayers are with your entire family during this time! He is in the arms of our Lord now. God Bless! Love, Kat Ballinger

Take comfort in knowing that now you have a special guardian angel to watch over you.
