Not sure what to say?

I am so sad and guilty to learn that Jerry died 11 months ago. I did not know until today, when I tried to look him up to telephone him.

Jerry officiated my wedding in 2003. I was looking at the pictures. Just looking at the pictures of Jerry make me want to smile because he had such a good sense of humor. Whenever I was around him, he'd make outrageous comments simply to make people chuckle.

He had a good heart, a quick mind, and I miss him.

Gerry was my favorite Professor when I went to PSU in the 70's. I took many classes from and learned a great deal. He also did legal work for me and was superb. I went to court once just to watch him as a judge. Smart and kind. I am so sorry to hear of his passing. My prayers go out to your family.

I was truly sorry to hear of Gerry's passing. My memories of him go back to when we were at The University of Oregon in the mid-50's. He was truly "one of the good guys". Bill Hettick

He was a good guy. He presided at our wedding. We will miss him.

Esther and family: we are so sorry to hear that our friend has passed away. He was one in a million.

My Family will miss him. I thank him for being a wonderful friend to me

Was saddened to read of your loss. Our condolences to you all.

Hi Leslie-I am so sorry for your loss I know how much you loved your dad and all the times you talked about him and how much we laughed together with your stories of him. He's probably sitting on Charlotte and Eddie's front porch having a beer with them and chatting about how much he loves you, cares for you but knows you'll be OK because of Joe, Bea and the rest of your family. I am truly sorry for your loss and you are always the first in my thoughts and prayers. Love.
