Jerry and Linda were close friends of my parents and I when I was a teenager. I have so many awesome memories of Jerry, Linda and the 3 boys. Jerry had a heart for the lost and was gifted by God to present the Gospel in love and power. I´m sure he and my parents are having a sweet reunion in heaven right now. I´ll see you later Jerry.
