It was an honor to know Jerry. He was a wonderful man and full of life and love. The campground became our refuge during difficult times in our life and his smile made it that much more encouraging everytime we went. It will not be the same without him. It is encouraging to know we will see him again someday as he was a strong man of Faith. God Bless you all through these times and know you are loved and in our prayers.
