You have my prayers. I went to grade school with Jerry and just recently reconnected with him when he came to a pizza party our class had.

I used to work with Joan in Miamisburg. I met Mr. Sutter several times, enough to know that he was a good man, a good father and he was very proud of Joan and her career. My condolences to Joan and her family.

I couldn't have asked for a better father in-law. From the very first time I meet Jerry, he always made me feel a part of the Sutter family. I will miss him & his sense of humor. He truly was one of the best and will never be forgotten.

Dear Family of Jerry,
I am so sorry for your loss.
I knew Jerry best during my grade school years, when I was good friends with his wonderful sister Esther. We often "dropped" into the Sutter house on our way back from practicing softball at Walnut Hills, and other times when Esther and I and Annie Myers were running around the neighborhood. All of us went to St. Mary's where we had many good times together.
I hope that cherished memories will see you through this sad time. My very best to Eileen.
