Hard to Believe ten years have passed!
In memory of Jerry; a terrific gentleman, a true genuine friend and mentor to a young inexperienced sales fella; back in the day. 43 years ago I met Jerry at my first day at ADCo .
Never hears a mean word from Jerry about anyone. He'd just call 'em a 'Cotton Pickin', Cotton Picker!
he sure was quite an avid King salmon fisher and Snowmobiler!

My name is Scott Snyder, and I worked with Jerry from 1982-1987 at Alaska Distributors. He was always such a nice and gentle man, and I am truly sorry to hear of his passing. As I write this, I can still hear his voice in my head. Peggy, I am so sorry, and I wish you peace and comfort in our Lord Jesus Christ. I realize that his passing is almost a year ago, but just tonight, I came across the news. My best to you.

Our deepest sympathies to our dear friends. Jerry was a very kind man. My children adored him and thought it was great that he treated them like grandchildren. He will be missed. My daughter was telling me about the time that her and her cousin Kaytlin were swinging on Jerry's tree swing. He pushed them and the swing broke. Little things that bring such joy to one life. Jerry was a big joy to all. We love you and prayers sent out to the family.
