I already miss you Jerry! I was SO blessed to have you as my neighbor and friend. We never passed each other without a friendly wave or fun conversation. (My big grey bulldog) Zeus was madly in love with him. Jerry and Zeus connected immediately like long lost friends when they met. I knew Jerry from the AM Legion and as my neighbor and friend. <3 You are so very missed!

We will all miss you Uncle Jerry!
We didn´t see each other often but I trust you knew how much you were loved by our family over the years. I will never forget the "Uncle Jerry hats" you gave to my brother and I for Christmas many years ago. :)
Our thoughts are with you all during this difficult time.

Jerry and his family camped across from me many years ago. We had fun cooking his ox tail stew over the open fire. He will be missed.

Condolences to all the survivors. We met Jerry in the early 60's and he soon became a lifelong friend. We were all part of a fun loving bunch of young people that literally bonded together. Jerry was the one with the big smile and infectious laughter. We had many hunting, fishing, partying and just plain hanging out experiences together, Our group had a community boathouse and we shared many memorable experiences there. It was so admirable the way Jerry went through that horrible life changing highway accident, and still kept his cheerful, positive attitude for the remainder of his life. Jerry was one really strong willed man! We will all miss you big guy! You were truly one of a kind.
