Not sure what to say?

Papa was the closest thing I ever had to a dad, and I miss him more and more daily. Thank you, everyone, for your thoughts and prayers. If you would like a copy of the slideshow played at his funeral please email me at [email protected] with your name and address, and I will send you a copy of it on a DVD.

I new Jerry for at least 40 years. He lived with me right after my wife and I got married for a while. Good friend and good person. He'll be missed. May his soul find eternal rest.

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Growing up in Archer and doing a lot of hunting with Jerry and my dad (Jack Smith, Sr.) was always a lot of fun and you never knew what was going to happen. I wish I could be there in person with you all but I will be with you in my thoughts and prayers. I have many memories of Jerry and I hope that your memories will bring you joy and peace in your time of need.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
