Jerry Whitworth, Jr.

June 28, 2004

I just wanted to thank everyone for all their prayers and condolences. I've tried to post the Eulogy, but the site will not allow me without editing it. My father is sorely missed. Mom and I have managed to get through this difficult time thanks to everyone for their enormous generosity and helping us with what ever we need. We couldn't do it without everyone, so thank you all very much.

Your father's death is beyond belief. I know that he was proud of you and your accomplishments. It is difficult to have a father die. Not a day will go by, that you will not miss him. If you look within, you will see your father. You were a good son and you made him proud and happy to be your father.
