Sharon, I am so sorry to hear that Jerry passed away. Just thinking of all the double dates with Jerry and Sonny. What a great time we had. Those carefree highschool years. I'm sure we thought we would never grow old, just live on for ever and ever. Thinking of you and your family. So many grandkids to carry on his memory. You are all in my prayers. With love Carol Nelson Leigh
