We made it through all the holidays without you. I didn't think I could do it but I knew you would not want me to disapoint the kids so I tried very hard and made it.

Jerry, Thank you for always being a friend. Our time spent at work, fishing, hunting, or just hanging out was always a great time and always full of great memories. Those times will never be the same without you. Deer camp was not the same but your presence was felt and your stories still told. You will forever make us laugh. You will be missed, but never forgotten. Linda, I hope you are doing well. I'm always thinking of you both. P.S. Jerry, thanks alot for the E-mail address you pinned on me.

Jerry, life isn't going to be the same with you gone. You always treated me with such kindness, friendship and respect. You were always willing to help when I needed it. You were always willing to lend an ear when I needed it. You always gave good, sound advice when I asked. If I'd ever had a brother, I wish you could have been him. I'm going to miss you old friend, but I'm sure our paths will cross again.

Linda, Tonya, and Steven,



Words cannot express how deeply sorry we are for your loss. I know Jerry lived his life to the fullest by always enjoying his family, his hobbies, and his friends that he loved so much. My family was blessed when we moved in across the street from you almost 30 years ago. There are so many wonderful memories. Linda, my mom and dad were very lucky to find true friendship with you and Jerry. I know Mom and Dad will be by your side whenever you need them. Dennis and I are also here for you in any way you need us. May you find comfort in your memories during the days ahead.



With Love,

Brenda and Dennis Griffie
