I am so sorry that I was unable to attend the service. Uncle Jerry will always be a special memory for me. I spent mant times at your hoouse as a child and he always treated me as if I was another one of "his girls". Kathy and I were always together and I love each and every one of you as if you were myown sisters. May God bless you all. I know it's hard to lose your parents and they can never be replaced, but one day we will all be reunited in Heaven.
Love and Condolences,
Becky (Drumm) Yeager

TO THE JOHNSTON FAMILY:
Jerry and I go back to my ROTC days at Loyola and the MP Corps Reserve Unit in New Orleans. He was a fun guy and a it was a pleaseure to have been associated with him in the past. I also recall he had a real knack for drawing cartoons. Unfortunately, we lost touch over the years. My condolences to the family.

Some many years ago I was in real estate & that is how I met Jerry. He was very helpful to me & a very very nice person. My family & myself wish to express our deepest sympathy to his family. God Bless You All.

To the Johnston family:
It has been my pleasure and honor to have been in service to your family all these years. Mom and Dad were so lucky to have such a wonderful bevy of children. It's people like you that make my profession worthwhile.
Mr. Alex, as does Ms. Joan, will remain in my thoughts and prayers forever.

The hurricane swept out of my life this remarkably warm and caring human being. His telephone no longer worked. Ray LeCron called, looking for Jerry; he told me today since the Picayune doesn't come tis far north.
Girls, if I were there I would hug and kiss each; your father ranks high on my list of the finest people I have known.
Love, Roy
