Kay and family,
I was saddened to hear of your loss. Jerry was a true gentleman and such a joy to work with. During one of our many conversations Jerry told me when interviewing for a job opportunity to ensure shoes are polished and shining. For whatever reason, I have always remembered that one tidbit even after 30 years. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Kay & family,
I just want you to know that during my many conversations with Gerry over the years, he always had a smile on his face when he spoke of you. I would often ask him how his lovely wife was doing and he would tell me with a grin from cheek to cheek. You could tell he was a dedicated family man. Always happy to talk about his girls and what was going on in their lives. He had a great sense of humor and we joked a lot. One of my favorites was: I used to call him Rabbi, I would say bless me father for I have sinned and his eyes would light up and say "I am sorry Robin, but you have to many sins to forgive." In other words I am beyond hope. I will miss talking to him and know that I am holding each of you in my prayers. May you find comfort in knowing that he loved all of you and held you close to his heart.

Kay, It was such an honor to work with and get to know both you and Gerry. Gerry was always a kind, gentle man. He always did what he could to help others, both as a supervisor and friend. I know God welcomed him to heaven with a "Well done good and faithful servant."

I've just now received word of Jerry's passing. Jerry was always Grace in action. I'm certain that God has welcomed him home with a hug and a "well done" whisper in his ear. I feel the gratitude of having known and worked with Jerry and that wonderful smile. God bless you all, mark

My condolences to the family. If this is the Jerry that used to work at First National Bank Tempe Data Center. I used to work with him in my early years at the bank and always remember him as a great person, pretty calm (most of the time) and an all around good person. I have good memories of him and very sad to hear of his passing.
