I use to work with Jerry, he was my Grocery Manager, when I was starting out with Albertson's, lot's of talks, lot's of advice and lot's of fun! He was always there for me when I was having a rough day, always there for me when ever I needed someone to talk to, and always there for me when I needed someone to back me up.
Thank You!

I met Jerry at Northview grade school so we were buds for about 50 years. Jerry went fishing with my Dad and I (and many other boys) countless times as kids. I could recount many stories but the best one was when he pulled my younger brother Phil from the creek. Phil was just a baby, stumbled into the creek and down he went. The rest of us were oblivious but Jerry snatched him out by the back of his coveralls and probably saved his life. I look forward to seeing Jerry again on the other side.
Jerry was a good bud, a good man and I will miss him.
God Bless you all

Jerry you were a true friend,We grew close as family very fast,when you first came to M'Boro.You were my crutch to lean on and my shoulder to cry on when J.C. passed away.You'll never know how much you mean to our family and words could never tell how I felt when I looked up and you were at the funeral home when I was having such a hard time at J.C.'s visitation.To Terry and the whole family we all will miss him and if you ever need any thing at all just give us a call.May God be with you as you go through these rough times of saying Good Bye amd Missing him.Hold tight to each and every memory as I have found this helps ease the pain and know in your hearts that we will see him again.Love Always and Forever, Peggy and Granny

I've known Jerry since we were 7 years old, and loved him dearly as did everyone who knew him. The last time I saw him it was as if all the years were gone and he was still that same little kid that I grew up with. He will be terribly missed.

No matter how much time has gone by, you have always had a special place In my heart. There has been many miles of distance, but, it did not separate the feelings.
It was always nice to be able to continue a conversation without skipping a beat. On behalf of myself, and many friends in Northern California , we will always have those memories, thanks to you, Love you Jer!!
