Not sure what to say?

My sincere sympathy to the family of a good friend, fellow veteran and union brother. Jerry was a great individual to know and work with in the USW.

I want to give a special salute to Jerry for his tireless and unselfish service through the two Vietnam Veterans organizations. He answered every call, greeted everyone with a smile and treated everyone with respect. Great example of how to live a life of service.

To the family of Jerry Porter. He was a great, generous and caring Union man who I had the privilege of working alongside making Christmas baskets for over 20 years. He will be greatly missed. Prayers go out to the family.

Mr. Porter, we are so sorry to here the loss of your Dad and also your Mom not long ago. My prayers are with you and your family.
