Jerry was my fifth grade teacher and he was very young at that time. I remember my mom suggesting that I give him aftershave for Christmas and I told her that I didn’t think he shaved yet! I believe that he got married to his beautiful wife in October of that year and we took up a collection in class to buy his wedding gift. Some of us even attended the wedding. Mr. Miser was a wonderful teacher but an even better man. I will treasure the memories of him and his great smile and kind demeanor. Praying for comfort for his wife, children and family. ❤

I didn’t know Jerry personally. My husband and I are neighbors of his daughter Stacy, and son-in-law Lou Ater. We certainly see Jerry’s shining example in their love and friendliness! We are broken hearted for the whole family . He must have impacted so many lives for the better. We pray for peace for the family.
