My grandfather was such a great man, he was very stern but always was joking around and teasing us about something or another, he would talk to a rock , he loved the gift of gab , he knew no stranger, he was always there to lend a helping hand with his truck if you ever needed something moved, always willing to help someone, loved his family and loved his farm, I miss him screaming my grandmother name wandie Rae is what he would holler, he will be greatly missed forever !!

Jerry was always one of my very favorite patients. He had a smile for me regardless of sick he might have been. I will miss seeing that sweet smile.
