Not sure what to say?

Godspeed, long-lost Uncle Jerry. My sincere condolences to Chris, the kids, and all the family.

Jerry was a strong presence. May hearts be comforted with the love shared ....
So sorry to hear this news...

A great person and straight shooter told you like it was.

Jerry was a good, good man.I feel lucky to have had him as a friend for 35 years. He leaves behind all that he created, and all of us who trusted, enjoyed and loved him.

Jerry leaves a lot of friends in Wendell. He was part of a generations' exodus back-to-the-land. He gave advice, helped raise timbers, shared meals and music and meaningful times. His presence is a treasured part of many of my friend's lives.

Sorry about your dad Willy. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Morgo

Jerry was close to me, like a brother. He loved his family, he loved the land around him. Jerry shall always be remembered warmly.

A tremendous loss to all humanity- an extraordinary human.

What a tremendous loss. A private man and a gentle man.
