Jerry was quite the story teller. I always enjoyed talking with him and listening to his recalling the old days & folks from the earlier Damascus community. He was a walking historian. We'll miss him. Deepest sympathies. David & Leslie Shofner

I am so very sorry for your loss but he is with our Lord now. I had Jerry on my prayer list for quite a while. He fought a good fight. I’m thankful he has no pain or suffering now.
I wanted to be at his service but I had 2 doctors appointments today.
May God comfort you as only He can.
Love in Christâ£ï¸ðŸ™ðŸ»ðŸ™ŒðŸ»
