Carolyn, I just heard that Jerry has left us. Both of you are special to me, though I have neglected you for too long. You know best of all how special he was; know there are many who appreciated him, too.

I am in shock. How can someone so full of life be gone? We miss our friend Gerald at work, but we were so happy he got to retire and spend time with his family. I know the last year will be treasured. To his family-please know how much all of his friends at the Main Post Office are thinking of, and praying for all of you. He was a beloved friend and co-worker. We miss his humor, and his kindness.

Judy and family, "Mr. Foster" was our mailman at my office at Little Rock National Airport. And he really was ours! We consider him part of our family. He was always so kind and friendly and we were very disappointed when he retired. Disappointed, but happy for him! Please know that we are praying for all of you as you go through this very tough event in your lives.

I cannot express how incredibly sad this makes me. The last time I saw Gerald he was telling me how much he loved retirement & telling me all about his grandkids. I am glad he got to enjoy retirement for a while with his family, & am saddened that it wasn't longer. You are all in my thoughts. He will be missed by many, myself included.
