Jerry Wayne Smith Sr.

My father really surprised me with his strength and endurance. HE was supposed to leave us so many times but defied all the odds by prooving us and the docters wrong for 15 months. I Couldn't begin to guess how many people he led to christ? I want to say,thanks dad,because even though we had our issues we still has a good relationship. He will be missed.

Wow! A great man is gone!!! He helped me more than I can say! My christianity is because of his good ways!! I am sorry I couldn't be there but I heard the ceremony was beautiful! Mr. Jerry was a saint! God bless you all! Mr Jerry is now in a great place feeling no pain and hanging out with all from midfield! I love you all!

What a Amazing Funeral. Im thinking of all of you, and thankful your apart of my extended family. What would we have done without each other these past few months?

Dad,
I miss you soo much. I wish you could have hung around another week or so to see your new granddaughter. I will make sure that she knows all about how loving her pawpaw was. Thank you for letting me be your namesake. I will make sure Mom is taken care of for you, also. Until I embrace you again in heaven, I love you.
Love,
Jerry W Smith, Jr.

My precious extended family, you are certainly in my prayers. I remember Jerry and Jenny coming to Mom and Dad's before they were married. There was always coffee on and cake (with occasional homemade waffles). Jerry was a good sport with all he put up with Jenny and Jean's pranks. Regardless, he married Jenny and had three beautiful children.

There are no words to ease the sorrow but I found helpful: Weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. -Psalm...

I remember Uncle Jerry being a fun and loving person. He was very special and we will always remember him.

You all are in my thoughts and prayers.
