What a sweetheart. Jerry would always be in to work very early. For years, there was a Hershey chocolate with pecan nugget on my keyboard every morning. He was always smiling and happy and was so proud of his family. Jerry had the gift of making you feel valued when you talked with him. I'm so happy our paths crossed. Thanks, Jerry!

What a wonderful human being has left this planet. He had the greatest sense of humor ever. He showed eternal love and devotion to his wife and son. He made an impact he probably never realized. Derek, you were the apple of your father's eye. I know you will carry on with the great man's spirit. Katie Mroz
