Your Husband and Dad was an amazing man who I deeply cherished as my uncle. He made me smile, laugh and forget my woes in a heart beat. He always had a hug for me and a special smile and twinkle in his eyes.
We are very lucky to have had him in our lives and I will never forget him, he owns a piece of my heart.
Uncle Jerry is with Mom and Dad and I am sure him and Dad are talking about which car to overhaul and shaking their heads at a few of us and what we are driving.
You are all in my thoughts and prayers and I know this is a very difficult time. Try to remember all the fun and laughter you have had and this will help you all get through the next few days, weeks, etc. If you need anything I am but a phone call away. Love Janet

Aunt Reva, Wayne,Sharon, Marnie and Carolyn and Families…
We have all been blessed to have had such a sweet, gentle, loving man as part of our lives. I remember his quietness and our long talks on the phone – I will miss that….
Uncle Jerry has left us, but he is in good company , he has been welcomed by his brother Shorty and sister Margaret…I’m sure they are having a good time talking and laughing about their early years in Palgrave…
Take comfort in knowing that he was loved by all who knew him and that will be missed and never forgotten…
Much love to all…
