Dear Family,
Kind words are comforting, yet they do not take away the pain of losing someone you love so dearly.
Mary, you and Jerry shared love at a very special time in your lives. Thank you God for this Blessing.

Love...

Dear Girard Family,
I am so sorry to hear of Jerrys death. I ran into someone today that we worked with at LaSalle Street Press/Bowne together and he gave me the the news. Jerry was such a funny person to work for. God bless and take care.

Thank you so much for all of your kind thoughts and words. It is so wonderful to hear from all of you (some we haven't heard from in a long time) and know that you are thinking of us...
Your comments and memories of Dad are extremely comforting and remind us that we are not the only ones feeling this loss.

I just heard about your loss. I am so terribly sorry. I have so many fond memories of him as I played with Teresa and Connie at the house on Susan Lane in Deerfield. He and Mary Lou always welcomed me. Please know that he will still live in my memories.

To Steve, Danny, Teresa (Jim), Connie and Mary.
Sincerest sympathy on your loss. Even though it's been many years since I've seen your Dad, fond memories of so many years together at Bowne (and the many visits of all of you as kids) will be with me always.
Mary, I met you once at a play in the loop shortly after you and Jerry we married. I hope the years you and Jerry were together will leave many fond memories to comfort you.
I received Jerry's note in...
