I will miss "Big Jer" very much, he was such a wonderful part of my life. I will always remember our trips to Kopps's, sneaking a banana shake; playing cards with him and Renee; his stories in the hot tub and playing with his grandkids in the pool.

Love, Mary Ellen

I was so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. I remember him as a wonderful neighbor on S. 25th Street. May you be sustained by your faith and memories. God be with you.
