Every morning, I would drive my school bus by Jerry's detail shop at 7:00 a.m. and not only was Jerry always there bright and early (he clearly had an impeccable work ethic), but no matter what he was doing, he would hear the bus and turn and wave at me! And, of course, I waved back with a smile. It was like our morning ritual. I stopped in one afternoon with my grandson to meet him, but He must have stepped out for a moment, as he was not there. Now, this school year, I drove by day after day to closed doors. I have been researching to find out his name and what happened to him. I'm so very sad that Jerry is no longer with us. He was a bright spot in every morning, and I will never forget his friendly wave and jovial spirit. May you rest in peace Jerry; you left such an impression in my heart.
