Carole and I offer our heartfelt condolences to the Jerry Kohll family for the lost of Jerry. I started working with Jerry and Marvin when I graduated from pharmacy school in 1961. I continued working with Jerry as a consultant pharmacist in the nursing homes for the next 36 years. Jerry practiced the highest standard of pharmacy and was respected by all for his ethical and professional behavior. My wife and I knew Jerry and Gail for many years and meet them at many social events as they were both a very social and gracious couple. Jerry will be dearly missed by all of his professional and personal friends.
THANKS JERRY for all of the great memories!!!

Gail and family, my sympathy to all of you! Jerry gave me my first job at 14 years of age. He trusted me beyond reason. I guess he saw something I did t. We became fast friends and he always will be in my good memories.

Jerry was my first boss at Kohll's Drugstore. I worked in the diner /lunch counter area. I learned so much from him. His mild -mannered temperament, kindness and encouraging way were never forgotten. My sympathy to his family and friends as they mourn this great loss.
