I worked with Jerry in BLM in Washington way back in 1969-76! He was a wonderful gentleman and made a unique and lasting contribution to our land management agency. I hope and trust that all his life was interesting and enjoyable for him.

Jerry was a wonderful man, a thoughtful, kind, smart, generous person. He and his entire family are true givers and are present for people in a way most people are not. I wish Jerry and his family God's peace and His presence throughout this time.
