Dear Trisha, Kevin, Mary and Ann,
The last time I saw Jeri was a few years ago when I was in Portland to see my family. I happened to be there on a Monday night, which was bowling night and was asked to sub for Tammy, who at the time was on the bowling team with Jeri, Myron and Bill. I think he was thrilled to have me there because I was a worse bowler than he was. I loved Jeri's warm energy and his disarming sense of humor......He had a way of surprising me with his soft spoken wit. Our...

Dear Pat and family,
I discovered Jeri's obit while searching for a dear friend's,who also was 'called Home' the same day.
Vern and I want you to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers at this time,and will add you to our daily prayer list.
I have such fond memories of our years together @HT and Cedar Hills.

I pray you find comfort in these 'truths':"Love is stronger than death and reaches across time to bind us together,"And:"To live in the...

My heartfelt sympathies go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring comfort. Knowing that there's a hope for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring.

Rose Anne Ruselli & Family -Pat and Family: So sorry to hear of your loss but know he is feeling much better now.
Please take care of each other.

Dear Pat & family, I was the Open Heart Surgery Charge at OUSU from 1964-1984, so I new Jeri well. He was a great guy to work with. We worked especially close when the Starr/Edwards Pacemaker was introduced. My husband also knew him. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Blessings to you all, Alice & Gary Cannon

What an impressive guy! He and his bright spirit will remain in our hearts and memories.

I am so sorry for your loss.
"May you ... surround and comfort me."
~Psalms 71:21

Dear Pat and family, After reading Jeri's story, the impact that he had on lives was remarkable.such a humble and wonderful person that we had in our midst and wasn't aware of his talents and intellect until now. God will surely be welcoming him into heaven with a blast of trumpets. Your fifty-six years together is inspirational for all of us as I'm sure it is to your children and grandchildren. Blessings to you all, lee and mary ellen landry
