Goodbye old friend. I just found out where you went.
You held your secret from many. From all I have attempted to research since learning this devastating news was that you never ever gave up and called upon the light you shed on so many lives for your own strength.
I sit completely crushed by the weight of your departure. I cannot help but grieve. While we were consumed with years of work, life and responsibilities, our friendship never ever weaned.
Our families broke...

Every once in a while, someone is a part of your life that makes a difference, Coach Jerry was that. Talking to him was like talking to the President, you listed intently, always wondering where he was going, and not sure if you got your point across because Jerry took you to where he wanted you to be. He was very diplomatic. I will always remember his smile, and the character he instilled in all children... Thank you!

We'll miss you Jerry!!
We will miss you so much, Jerry! You taught my girls gymnastics for several years and it felt like the gym was our second home! You were always so happy to see us as we walked in the door for class. You would greet us with your huge smile and smiling, soulful eyes. My girls were 7 and 4 when you taught them gymnastics, and now they are 26 and 23. We talk about you all the time and reminisce about the good times, good friends, camaraderie and just plain old fun! Every time we make a visit to...

I'm so very sorry to hear about Coach Jerrys passing. He was such a kind and gentle man who was so very helpful and encouraging to all the young people he helped. He will be fondly remembered and greatly missed. Rest in peace and God Bless him.
