Not sure what to say?

You are missed as much today as you were yesterday and will be missed forever. My love to Glenda always.

Dr. Cotner was amazing ~ one of the nicest individuals you could ever know. I have spoken to him for years. I was fortunate to meet him through my old boss @ Smith Barney. Glenda ~ you are in our prayers and if anything is needed, don't hesitate to reach out to Daniel, Jason or I. Heather Hughes

Peter & Barbara Franklin send their sincere condolences. Jerry was a true gentleman and a great doctor. He had a "zest for life" that always brought a smile to our face. He will truly be missed by all those that knew him. Glenda: It will not be soon but time will heal. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

A true friend, we still laugh about fishing in Sitka with Jerry & Glenda, and Jerry telling of he and Art in Pakistan. God Bless Jerry!

Jerry touched the lives of all he knew and his zest for life was incomparable. Words are inadequate to express the sorrow and sympathy extended. He will remain in our hearts and in our memories forever. Prayers for you and all the family.

I was lucky enough to know Jerry as his patient and as his friend through DSC. He was brilliant doctor and a very admired hunter. He was one of the kindest men I have ever known. He was an exceptional man who indeed led an "Exceptional Life." My deepest sympathy,Glenda. You and the world have lost a true treasure

Glenda I am so saddened to hear that such a precious man is no longer with us. But his eternal life is celebrated. And oh the stories he can tell in heaven! Jerry and I were always thrilled when seated next to him at a dinner party ! He will be missed ... a true gentleman and man of God ! All were Blessed who knew him Glenda !

I am saddened to learn of Jerry Bob’s passing. He was a lover of life. Glenda we pray you are surrounded by peace & love. Leesa & Gary Alhadef
