Jerry, I'll always remember the 'letter carrier' who wore shorts, rain or shine.
In later years, when you retired and I ran into you, you'd still inquire about my mother and talk about yours. RIP

Jerry was an inspiration & friend to many. His special bond with his son, Jeff, was evident by the smiles that Jeff brought to Jerry's face. He will be missed, but not forgotten. I was blessed to have known him. God bless Jerry & his family.
