Not sure what to say?

Jerry was a good friend and an outstanding person. I'm sure everyone who came in contact with him was impacted by his kindness. If a friend ever had a need, Jerry did his utmost to assist in that need. He impacted my life greatly. I will miss him.

I was so sorry to hear about Jerry. I have emailed you several times but have not heard from you. My prayers are with you at this time. Let me know if there is anything I can do for you.

I met Jerry about 26 years ago while he was working on a stock car in my neighbor’s garage. I was a 14 year old kid with a curiosity of what they were doing. Jerry was a patient mentor who treated me as one of the guys and taught me a lot of what I know about cars today. A couple of years later when I was down and out, Jerry and Jackie took me into their home as one of their own and allowed me to stay with them until I graduated and joined the Air Force. I cannot even begin to say how...

Just a note to express my many thanks to Jerry for everything he did for me on helping with the race team in times of desperation. He was a wonderful person and a great friend of the family. He will be greatly missed.

I am writing this for my parents Jerry and Lowanda Bruley.
They knew Jerry for many years prior to moving to Oregon. I know Jerry and my dad did a lot of fun things together. I remember once when my husband and I were heading back home to Helena from laurel and we hit a deer by Columbus, who did my dad know that had a trailer to haul our totaled car? Well, Jerry Collette of coarse. What a nice and generous man he was. He will be remembered in our hearts. Thank you jerry for helping us...

One of the nicest guys I ever knew. He will be sorely missed by all. May God rest his soul.

I will miss having coffee at the cafe, I met Jerry when I Raced stock cars over 30 years ago. He was always there If you need help.
Jerry was a very kind and good humared person I am sure He will be missed by all,
I was a Great honor to say that Jerry was a Friend.
