Jo'Ann, Jerry Wade told me about your son's death and I wanted to write and tell you how sorry I am for your loss.I can't imagine any pain greater than the one burdening you and your husband. I am surrounding you with love and prayer during this very sad time.

You will be missed by all who new you, Jerry. Jerry and I met in High School. We quickly became friends sharing many interests, we were both huge Led Zeppelin fans and raced go-karts together. He was the kindest, down to earth person. I've ever met. I lost contact with Jerry after High School. sadly I have lost him now forever.
