Dear Betty & Family - my name is Arnold Braasch - I took Jerry and Bob camping and did other things when they were young. I was married to Ethel Kampfert- Lilly's niece. Jerry was a caring man and we shared trucking stories later in life. Sorry to hear of his passing. Arnold Braasch [email protected]
