I would like to share the sorrow of your loss. I worked for about six years with Jay at Baldpate Hospital during the night shift and the evening shift. It was a pleasure to know and be a co-worker of his. He will be missed.
Sincerely,
Pamm (Perry) Brown

Dear LaPierre Family,
I was so sad to see the loss of your son Gerry. You may not remember me, but I am Pamm (Perry) Brown and we shared many summers up on Country Pond in Newton, NH. Gerry brought fun entertainment to the beach area, like getting that running start and attempting to ride his bike off the pier, all the mothers would scream! I am so sorry and I pray you find comfort through your memories of Gerry and through your family and friends.

As kids we'd romped and stomped around the ole neighborhood with great neighbors and, though we'd seen each other only infrequently, we shared memories and laughed about the old times. I thought we'd be apt to do so again and I am most truly saddened that it will not be so and it is with greatest sorrow that I convey my most sincere and heart-felt condolensces to Gerald's family. On that street we all were like family and I thank God that I had such people to guide me and to allow us all to play in relative safety and harmony. Requiem Pace Jerry
