To Candy, Blaine and Brad, I am so sorry for your loss. Growing up with your family as my neighbor, and great friends to us, I remember most Jerry's infectious laugh, sense of humor and what a great father he was to the boys and how sweet he was to me growing up.

Brad, Blaine and Candy,
There was so much that I learned from Jerry about being a good sales rep while I worked for him. His infectious laugh and many good times with Rowlette and Associates are things I will always remember. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you during this very difficult time.

Jerry was the best. I learned so much from him over the years. You knew Jerry was going to get the job done and have a great time doing it.
