Enjoyed visiting with Jerry when I was his nurse at Riverside Lodge. He had such interesting life experiences to share. Thoughts and prayers are with his family at this time. He would tell you that he lived an interesting, long life. May the many memories give you comfort at this time. Onna Callahan LPN
