I am sorry to hear of the passing of your father. He was a Big Teddy Bear and a wonderful person. I will always remember the good times we had when you and our kids played baseball and football. I will always remember the hugs he has for me

Jerry will be missed by his family and friends. He always had a smile and truly loved his family. He and Sharon are together once again…and happy.
So sorry for the loss of a good friend. Love, thoughts & prayers to all the family.
Jerry and Sharon were such wonderful people, I will never forget the fun times I had with them. They will both be greatly missed.
Sean, Sachia, and family, We are so sorry for your loss. Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of need.
Grandpa was a wonderful man who loved his family. I considered him a friend. I will miss him. I know his family will miss him even more. We are all at a loss. I know he is in Heaven with the other fantastic Grandpa’s. I’m so glad I was able to know him. I’m also glad he was able to see all of his grandchildren graduate from high school and on their way to productive lives. He even got to see his great grandchildren. They are all blessed by his love and example of goodness.
Though nothing can bring back the hour of splendor in the grass, of glory in the flower; We will grieve not, rather find Strength in what remains behind… My deepest sympathy to your family.
