Jerry L. Gritten

I miss you papa love you

Hello, my name is D'Brianne, however when Jerry and I were babysitters together my name was Debbie. Which I hated and I later changed, much to Jerry's approval I'm sure. I grew up in the house across from Jerry's - he was my best friend! It was awful when my family moved to California! I'm overcome with emotion now, I must sign off. I hope you all are doing well! (~.~) D'Brianne

Had I known the last time I spoke with you on the phone would be the last time I would hear your voice, I would have made you stay on the phone longer. I love you Jer Bear! I'll see you on the other side my friend. Rest in Peace Jerry & I'll see what I can do about WHATEVER...an inside joke he & I had. My Condolences to Sharon,Alyssa & Darayan.

Please forgive me for not being there for the second and last battle. You fought bravely. I will be there for the girls. See you in time.

We look forward to a time in the future when sickness death and mourning would be no more and grief will be replaced by triumphant joy, when we see our loved ones again

With deepest sympathy to the family doing your time of grief. God is for you a refuge and strength. A help that is there to be found during difficult times. May God provide you with peace and comfort to endure the days ahead.

Jerry,being one of my first new friends after moving back to Sacramento, introduced me to many wonderful new people. He seemed to be friends with everybody. Anytime somebody would need a bite to eat or a place to rest or their bike fixed, his door was always open. He will be missed by so many. Ill love you always, Jerry. My sincere condolences go out to his mother, grandmother and two daughters.

love you big brother...

The bike community and all your friends in Sacramento will miss you terribly.

Words can not express my sorrow. You have been apart of my life since we were in junior. As we grew up we went in different directions but I always felt as if I were part of your family. I'm so sorry I wasn't able to be with you and your family. I'v been with you and your family in my thoughts and prays, sharon, terry, Jodie, and Jeffrey. I'll always remember living with you and your family and all of you making me feel like a part of it. Jerry, you will always be loved and missed, Charlie.

This family is so special to me. I loved Jerry very much. We shared many good times together. I will miss him. Big hug to Sharon who has been through this to many times....

Thank you for our two wonderful daughters . I hope you are at peace now. Time to go fishing with the others that got to the fishing hole in the sky first !
Fish On Jerry.

~Rest Peacefully Jerry~
