Dear Gerlach Family,
Jerry had a long difficult struggle. He showed his spirit in making a life through adversity. I graduated with Jerry in 1954 from St. Agnes High School. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time of sorrow.

Aunt Shirley and Family,
I was sad to hear about Uncle Jerry. He was a great man who suffered much in his life, but he was always quick with a joke and a smile. I know that this is a tough time and I hope you find comfort in the words and prayers of others as well as the wonderful memories you have in your hearts. He and my mom can now spend some time together without all their illnesses holding them back.
