To the Graves Family, I grew up around the corner from their family. Jerry was one of the older children of the family. I hope that your family finds comfort in knowing that God will be your husband, brother, friend or whatever it is you need. Look to the hills where all our help comes from.

Jerry was more than a tax client to us. We met over 30 plus year ago through David and my sister Betty who worked for Martin Marietta. He always kept me on my toes with making sure my skill set covered ever legal tax advantage he could get. We always look forward to seeing he and Sharon during that time, knowing we were about to be tested. Jerry's smile and ability to talk with tenacity even in the hardest situations was amazing. Thanks for the laughter and challenge my friend. Ms. Sharon and family I pray that God's Holy Spirit will sustain you during this time. And the peace of God which surpasses all understanding shall guard your hearts and minds, through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:7. RIH by friend.

To: Sharon and the rest of the Graves family,
I was deeply saddened when I heard about Jerry’s passing. Jerry and I met at Southern in the Art Department. We shared many good times there. Our talents were such that we often assisted teachers in some of the classes. I’ll always remember the laughter as we were the life of the Art Department. As the years evolved I was the best man in his wedding, and his life took on a more serious tone. Sharon, may the peace of our Lord which surpasses all understanding give you comfort and strength during this difficult time.
