Please accept my deepest sympathy at the loss of my very dear friend and former classmate, from St Louis Grammar School, and from Centralville. Jerry always had a way to make people laugh and if you were having a bad day, he could turn that around. His classmates, from the St Louis School class of 55, will truly miss him. He was a very special friend to me. He might be gone but I sure will never forget him. God Bless. Terry Landry Fauvel.

You will be missed by all the second best friends near and far. You made everyone feel like they were the first best friend when you were them. It was my pleasure calling you my friend. Thank you for all the wonderful memories.
