Jerry had a huge presence in Windsor owning Rideout's Market and Grille for so many years. It was truly his dream come true.

We always enjoyed seeing Jerry at the resturaunt. Always made you feel welcome. I was always amazed despite how busy they were they always made time for their awesome and huge Easter egg hunt at the Fair Grounds. So very sorry for your tremendous loss especially taken way too soon in his younger life.
