Uncle Jerry was always such a sweet man and my family could tell he loved my Uncle Dan with his whole heart. I know Grandma Stahl thought the world of him and she didn't give high praise easily, and that shows what a uniquely wonderful person he was. I imagine that if she could have picked and crafted the perfect counterpart for her son she would have picked Uncle Jerry. I am sorry that I did not get to spend more time with him indivuidally, but from what I do know I greatly respected and adored. My condolences to my Uncle Dan and all of Uncle Jerrys family ad friends. My thoughts and prayers to all.
