Uncle Jerry,
Sad to say goodbye. I so remember your trip to South Dakota many years ago. We had such fun showing you the area. I remember the great time we had when you took us to the Chicago Zoo. I will cherish those memories forever. Love and Hugs, Chicki Trudeau Larson. Meckling South Dakota

To the Cheffer Family,
We worked with Jerry for over 40 years and appreciated his professional help, kindness and good nature. Who else could you have a lot of fun with while preparing your taxes? Only Jerry!
We will miss him always.
