Jerry Dean Tighe

Nate, we will all miss your dad very much. Jerry was such a big personality and he really cared about people. I first met Jerry through Mukilteo Boys and Girls Club and we soon became good friends.

He knew I was a night owl and often was working at the...

Condolences to the Tighe family, I had not seen Jerry in years but he brightened up quite a few days with his sincere and thoughtful quotes left on FB, he will truly be missed and there is now a void on my daily routine of checking on all my friends.

We miss you Jerry. We are so sorry for your great loss Nate, he loved you so much and was proud to have you as his son. You and your Father have always been a part of the Johnson family, please know that we are here for you, how ever we can help. God bless you Nate. Love Carey Teresa and Alyssa

Nathan, My thoughts and prayers are with you.
