Not sure what to say?

Around election time, I can't help but recall Gerry's famous slogan for the Birch Bayh campaign: He's a helluva fella even without Marvella! Miss you Gerry!

In these politically charged times, I often wonder what Gerry would make of all of it. Miss you!

I had professor Houseman at IUPU. He was my favorite professor, and his classes were very interesting and entertaining. My sympathies to your family.

Houseman Family,

I am saddened to hear of Jerry's passing. He was so funny with his quips. We still have a yard sign from his congressional campaign. So much fun watching you when your parents were away.

My condolences to all of you!

Houseman Family,

I am saddened to hear of Jerry's passing. I will always remember him for his wit and quick quips.

My condolences to all.

Jerry and Penny were my most faithful friends when we were still living in Ft. Wayne. Upon Penny's premature death, Jerry and I and later on with Juliana, stayed in constant touch. Both of them visited us 2 summers ago during their move to NH. Jerry was one of the brightest and - funniest people I have ever met. He will be missed not just by his family, but by his many many friends.

Dear Lisa and family,
Please accept my condolences on the death of your father. I have a nice memory of a conversation I had with your parents at their Canterbury Green Townhouse circa 1982. I wish you well.
