I am very sad to hear of Jerry's passing. He was a great cousin and a kind friend to me while growing up in West Helena. While Keith and I were running around together, we always looked up to Jerry. While I can't attend the funeral and visitation, please know of my love and prayers. As I shared with Betty, it was a real blessing to be able to see everyone at Uncle Jake's funeral.
With love and gratitude,
Terry
