MY HEART AND PRAYS GO TO THE FAMILY.

I will miss the times when Mr. Jerabek would come over when he knew I was working on my apartment and he would share stories about how he built our house and what our neighborhood use to be like. He loved going back to these times, and I enjoyed listening to him. He would tell me about different projects he worked on with his father and Charles Jr. and he'd share his building ideas with me and I'd bounce mine off him. I really enjoyed his company and I will miss that. Charles and Karla, hang in there, take care of your mom and if you need me for anything......I'm there for you.

Of the many thoughts that I have of him, the one that is most prominent in my memories is seeing him in his lounge chair at the end of our little deadend street whenever the sun was shining. At first I thought it strange, as years went by, I welcomed that site. I bought my home from Mr. Jerebek in 1986 and he made the neighborhood seem 'close.' I guess it was because he would just stroll over and chat sometimes; and I loved that. I remember one of my last conversations with him; he was already pretty sick, and we spoke about his medical condition and how he wasn't scared and that every man's time comes. We spoke about God; he brought up the subject and being a believer I welcomed the opportunity to share what I believe with him; that God loves us and knows what we're going through. I encouraged him to speak to God, and he said he does. I liked this man a lot. I liked what he brought to our little closeknit neighborhood. I still love the old house that I live in that he helped his father build.

My prayers are now for the loved ones he has left, because they now need God's strength and comfort and I care so much for them too.

I am so sorry for your loss Charles, Karla, Rosemarie and those family members I don't know.
