Not sure what to say?

I have such wonderful memories of Jerre as my coach at BSU. Some of my best times. Jerre cared so much for all of us. He had a great sense of humor! I hope the happy memories will carry you through this difficult time.
My deepest sympathy to the McManama Family,

Jerry was a great man and a mentor of mine. He always encouraged me and got me through a very difficult/awkward student teaching experience! I'll never forget his kindness and concern for getting me through a very difficult situation.

I am sorry for his passing.

He was a wonderful man and had a huge impact on my life. He was my coach and my friend. All my sympathy to the family.

Did you ever know a person that by just saying his name, a smile would appear on your face? That's what Jerre was for us. The memory of something he said or did was a good one. We only wish we could have talked to him one more time. He will be missed.

Thinking and praying for you, Donna and family.

I'm deeply sorry to hear of Coaches passing and I send my sincerest condolences to all of his family.
Lots of tremendous memories, great lifetime friends created due to Coaches love for the game and his players.
I'm reminded at this moment that…..The greatest legacy is not what we leave for people but what we leave in them...
Thanks Coach.

Ms Donna Mac and Family,

I send my sincerest condolances to your family at this time.

The passing of Mac hit me really hard! There are two people in my life that I feel like gave me true guidance for life: my high school soccer coach and "THE MAC", my socccer college coach.

Through his methods of coaching,Jerre taught me integrity, dignity, and honesty.

My only problem with him was he made run ca. 2.0 miles to our daily practices :)(LOL).

I feel blessed that...

Tina, Donna and family: So sorry to hear of your loss. May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief during this difficult time.
