Jerry was a great guy, I remember fishing with him and my dad, staying the night at the house with Jerry and Darcy while my mom and dad went out. I want to say sorry for your loss to all the children. Sorry I didn't make it to the viewing this morning. He will be welcomed in heaven by Darcy, Don and Rosemary McGuire, and all their other friends. Hugs for you all.
