Dear Maureen and Family,

I was so sorry to hear about Jerry's
passing from my Mom today.

I know he will be missed and I always enjoyed talking to you and
him when you came out to the Family
Picnic or we met at Family Weddings.

He had a great sense of humor that
I'm sure being Irish had a lot to
do with.

God Bless all of you in this time
of sorrow.

Allan and Mary Ann Castillo

Please accept our deepest sympathy

I started my employment with the state police in 1975. I didn't work directly with Jerry, but he would come to District 2 frequently. When he did, he always had a smile on his face, something nice to say and maybe a cute joke or two. He was a wonderful person and I am glad to have had the opportunity to have known him. I am very sad to hear of his passing. You were very lucky to have him in your lives.

I shared many investigations, training experiences and memorable times with Jerry. My memory of him wil be that of a ggod cop and a great guy.
