Not sure what to say?

I was so sorry to hear of Jerry's passing. I will always remember how supportive he was of me when I was just starting out on the faculty at Wright State. He was a genuine friend.

So sorry for your loss, prayers and thought with you and your family!

He set an example.

I will miss Uncle Gerry's quick wit and lovely smile. God bless and keep you close.

Dr. Meike was a fabulous math professor who truly cared about all students. His wonderful sense of humor and ability to make calculus interesting and fun remain unrivaled at Wright State University. I was privileged to have him for a teacher and especially appreciate how the excellent care and compassion of his loving wife Sally fulfilled and enriched his earthly life right to the end. On to infinity, Dr. Meike!
