I just heard the sad news....I am so sorry for your loss. Jerry was a wonderful man. I knew him and his wife through working with one of his daughters for years.
I know you all have very fond memories that will keep you smiling and laughing in memory of him for a very long time. I have lost my father also, so I can tell you those memories you have will always comfort you. I smile whenever I think of certain memories of my father.
Your father lives on in each and every one of you...take care!

Truly one of the nice guys I've worked with as an electrician in Local 110. Never saw Jerry mad at anyone or anything. We could all learn from that. I'll miss him.,,,,Dick Lundahl

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

Many good memories from Collins Electric with Jerry. Thinking of one time when I picked him up in a snowstorm to go to plant 1(Univac) and we were the only ones who made it into work; so we stayed overnight there. (They were worried the roof was going to collapse).
We enjoyed alot of retirement parties down by the Mississippi together.
Our deepest sympathy to the Prokop family.
