I am very sorry to hear about Jerry. He was a great salesman and friend to all his accounts. Always professional. Next to being a great salesman, he was an even better tour guide. He took me all over Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin and the Dakotas. giving me the history and taking us to the best hidden hole in the walls to eat. He even made me get an authentic cheese head. I know he will be missed by many many people.

Prayers go up for your family. Was a pleasure to work with Jerry when I was involved in business in Des Moines. He was a fair business person and a super personality.

I first met Jerry 20 years ago at Porky's Drive-In car night, but really only recently did we become friends. Jerry could talk to anybody and did not know a stranger and was a natural salesman. He loved his friends and family and spoke often of his children in Chicago quite fondly. His love of all things car related was a calling card to many of his friends. I will miss him much not seeing his green '32 highboy at Bennigan's each week. I am so glad to have known him.
