I am deeply saddened by passing of Jerry. He was a good man with a heart of gold. He was always willing to lend a hand and help anyone. We went to high school together, He stood up in my wedding and was Uncle Jerry to my daughters and my grandchildren. We were neighbors for years. He came to all my parties & I always tried to go to the functions that he arranged. We always had a great time together. He will surely be missed. Diane Carter
