Not sure what to say?

Jere was always a friendly face in the crowd. A good neighbor, a good listener, and just a nice person. And he remained that way. He will be missed.

Losing someone that we love never comes easy. It is truly heartbreaking. May God's promises in Isaiah 65:17 comfort and help you.

I shall miss the certainty that all I had to do was amble up my back hill and into Jere's driveway to enjoy a genuine greeting, a smile that wouldn't quit, and a life-giving energy that was palpable, returning with a sense of warmth and humanity, and an almost reckless disregard for the human foibles & follies that had found an unwarranted place in my spirit.

Jere was one of a kind! The twinkle of his eyes and the laughter with his smile brought so much joy..Rest in peace! To those left behind may your memories eventually bring laughter before your tears.

I have very fond memories of
Jere and the entire Nelson clan. I will always remember Jere's impish smile and competitive nature. He was a good guy and a good dad. My thoughts are with the family at this time.

My heart goes out to Jere's Family. My memories of him and the times we spent together all those years ago will never be forgotten. RIP My Friend.

Our deepest sympathy to Jere's family. We are very saddened and shocked to learn that Jere is no longer with us. He had always been around, from riding bikes with Brian, (Melanie), Mike and Doug, to working in the woods together. Many memories. So sad.
Sandy Cook,(Timer), and the boys.

My deepest condolences to you all. We all have special memories of Jere. May they warm your hearts and homes at this difficult time❤

We are so sorry to hear of the Nelson family loss. We have fond memories of your family from our youth and the church youth group. Our prayers and thoughts are with you during this time of grief.
